The details on Michael Moore’s Disney fraud are becoming so clear that even he can’t deny them any more:

Less than 24 hours after accusing the Walt Disney Company of pulling the plug on his latest documentary in a blatant attempt at political censorship, the rabble-rousing film-maker Michael Moore has admitted he knew a year ago that Disney had no intention of distributing it.

Meanwhile, the New York Times published an editorial bashing Disney instead of correcting its misstatement of the facts of the matter:

Give the Walt Disney Company a gold medal for cowardice for blocking its Miramax division from distributing a film that criticizes President Bush and his family. A company that ought to be championing free expression has instead chosen to censor a documentary that clearly falls within the bounds of acceptable political commentary.

Give that gold medal to the Times.
