"I would save my venom for people like Michael Moore. Fahrenheit 9/11 cost....what? About as much as an average episode of Friends? It made over $100 million in the theaters and became the biggest selling DVD of 2004. And yet Moore continually refused to let it get a free showing prior to the election. He would only permit pay-per-view or pay webcasts. It shows where his priorities truly lie.

"Earlier this year, Moore argued that the most important thing was for Fahrenheit 9/11 to be seen. 'I don't agree with the copyright laws and I don't have a problem with downloading the movie and sharing it with people,' he said"
Consistent with this, there were a number of sites openly offering F9/11 for free and were never asked to discontinue by Moore or Lions Gate, despite the fact that it was widely reported in many mainstream news sources.
