Thank you, Eisner, Disney, Thank you very much!
For all the freep publicity this worthy film is getting.

Now, we need to question the damned "R" rating and who decided to add that ball and chain to viewership?

Next, I would love the FEC to seriously consider the freeper goal of barring ads from TV because of election ad rules violations. If anything, that would really heat up the moderates and us folks.

But, mostly, Eisner again proved that brains and leadership of a company co-exist rarely, kinda sorta following the example of Bush and his numerous corporate successes.

1. FEC already declined to rule on F911
Edited on Sat Jun-26-04 08:59 AM by sgr2
Meaning they won't touch that issue with a ten-foot poll.

4. They've already ruled...

...by declining to consider the case. So the matter is ended, unless something else reallys stupid happens.

2. The FEC is slower than molasses
They won't rule for a while. and when the 60 day buffer comes along, Moore will just cut out the guys up for election and use guys like Rumsfeld instead.

5. Disney shareholders should've deep-sixed Eisner
Edited on Sat Jun-26-04 09:42 AM by KeepItReal
This Fahrenheit 911 fiasco (from Disney's perspective) should be more than enough evidence to his incompetence next shareholder's meeting...

6. they tried, boy, they tried
but Boy Wonder managed to stay put.

Must be the negatives he has in a safe.
