Now, In Demand has decided not to air Fahrenheit 911 before the election...Remember, this was a pay event, not broadcast commerical free like the non-sense about to be aired by Sinclair Media....

I never want to hear term liberal media again....First, CBS doesn't air the Reagan movie, 20 years after he's been out of office!.... Then Sinclair refuses to air Nightline episode where the names of the dead soliders were read as being too political, but they WILL AIR a smear show on Kerry....Now, In-Demand has caved in to righty.....Liberal media, HA!, liberals in the media are about as few in number as the bald eagle.....

Here's the article:

Moore's Pre-Election TV Special Nixed

By DAVID BAUDER
NEW YORK (AP) - The cable pay-per-view company iN DEMAND has backed away from a plan to show a three-hour election eve special with filmmaker Michael Moore that included the first television showing of his documentary ``Fahrenheit 9/11.''

The company said Friday it would not air ``The Michael Moore Pre-Election Special'' due to ``legitimate business and legal concerns.'' A spokesman would not elaborate.

Moore has just released his movie on DVD and was seeking a TV outlet for the film, which sharply criticizes President Bush, as close to the election as possible.

Earlier this week, trade publications said Moore was close to a deal with iN DEMAND for the special, which would also include interviews with politically-active celebrities and admonitions to vote. The Nov. 1 special was to be available for $9.95.

Moore was not immediately available for comment, a spokeswoman said.

The New York-based iN DEMAND, owned by the Time Warner, Cox and Comcast cable companies, makes pay-per-view programming available in 28 million homes, or about one-quarter of the nation's homes with television.

In a statement, iNDEMAND said ``we regret that our decision has led Michael Moore to consider legal action against us,'' which it said would be ``entirely baseless and groundless.'' The company did not say what legal action Moore was considering.

This spring, Moore did battle with the Walt Disney Co., which refused to release ``Fahrenheit 9/11'' through its Miramax Films because it was too politically partisan for the company's taste.

After that fight became public, Moore found other distributors. The movie, which attacks Bush's handling of the war on terrorists and war in Iraq and the Bush family's ties to Saudi royalty, earned more than $100 million at the box office.

In an interview with a Maine television station that aired this week, former President George H.W. Bush called Moore a ``slimeball'' and an expletive.

Being somewhat of a middle of the road guy my entire life I never understood the term "Liberal Media". I always felt it (the media) leaned more right than left.

There was something else that was nixed from mainstream TV and the Sundance channel allowed it. I cannot remember what it was right now though.

call you a leftist.  I have to admit that I seldom have seen such attacking terms for moderates used by people that are in fact liberals.
