The Moore you know, the less you blame Disney

Collin Levey at The Seattle Times

Yes, I copied the headline word for word. But it is appropriate.

I'm happy Moore finally got a distributor for his film Fahrenheit 9/11, I hope it bombs at the box office BADLY. After all, the market will speak and decide if Moore should have been heard from and it will help determine if he will be heard from again.

I'm also glad Disney decided to NOT distribute the film, they distribute enough trash and would rather not have another reason to avoid Disneyland.

(Full disclosure, I do not own any Disney stock, but do like the parks).

As Levey said,

With apologies for the remedial history, the First Amendment was intended to protect the right of individuals to speak freely without federal interference, not to guarantee major corporate sponsorship for those vehicles
