New objections to Moore's 'Fahrenheit 9/11' - Jun. 15, 2004:

A conservative organization called Move America Forward, formed in May to rally support for U.S. troops and the war on terror, has asked the public to call and e-mail executives at theater chains scheduled to show the film, according to Variety.com.

'Michael Moore has the right to free speech,' said MAF Chairman Howard Kaloogian, according to Variety. 'But so do millions of Americans who find his anti-military propaganda and attacks on our troops offensive.' "
