NEW YORK (CNN/Money) - Michael Moore's controversial documentary criticizing President Bush could be in theaters before the end of the month, according to published reports.
The trade publication Daily Variety reports that Moore was eyeing a June 25 or July 2 theatrical release date for the movie, 'Fahrenheit 9/11,' with a home-video release in October. But getting into theaters during those busy weekends at this late date will provide logistical challenges for the film's distributors, according to the report. "

At first read, I wasn't going to post this story. But, since other news agencys are picking it up, here it is.

It appears that the CNN reporter didn't see the story yesterday in the Los Angeles Times about Lions Gate Films expecting to release F911 in late June or early July.

Apparently, the CNN story was based on this story on Variety Dot Com.

Is the LA Times story true? Is Lions Gate Films the US distributor for F911?
