Actually, this was moore hype to get free publicity. As I recall eisner told
moore at least a year before the movie was to come out that disney was not
interested in distributing. Moore waited till the release neared to claim to
the press that the film was being supressed. Once he got the free
advertising he found a distributor in about 5 minutes. Think about it, you
really think it's hard to get some one in hollywood to distribute F911?
Moore pulled the same scam on one of his books and claimed that the
librarians magically came to his rescue.

Maybe so and maybe not. In any event, not a credible report when made anonymously.
