Google Search: Fahrenheit 9/11

Amazing! The "anti-Bush to anti-Blair" story that was killed Saturday on Michael Moore Dot Com and published by the BBC and Reuters is being passed off as "news" this morning.

Since Reuters is responsible for this worldwide deceptive story, will the international news wire service issue an offiical apology? An e-mail was sent to Reuters editors this morning seeking a statement regarding their role in this mis-communication mess.

Moore: From anti-Bush to anti-Blair

LOS ANGELES - Michael Moore isn't content to rest on his laurels when it comes to speaking out against the Iraq war.

The 50-year-old filmmaker - whose latest documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" won the top prize at May's Cannes Film Festival for its highly critical look at President George W. Bush's connections with high-ranking Saudis and his hawkish Iraq policies - has new prey in sight: British Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Moore intends to focus on Blair's role in backing the war, reports Reuters.

--------------

Zap2it.com just published a new article on Fahrenheit 911 30 minutes ago, '9/11' Shows Iraqi Prisoner Abuse, Gets R Rating".

Deep inside the article, it is written:

Recently, the filmmaker had claimed his next film would target British Prime Minister Tony Blair's role in the Iraq war, but is now denying this plan.

A statement on Moore's website posted on Sunday (June 13) reads, "Some news organizations are reporting that Michael is making a new film on Tony Blair. This is not true. Let us repeat -- THIS IS NOT TRUE. Michael made a joke about his next film being about Tony Blair in an interview and, apparently, it was taken seriously."
----------
The statement in the article in bold is not true.
Since when did "Fahrenheit 9/11" get reduced to "9/11"?

An email was sent to Zap2it.com for an explanation.
