Meanwhile, Moore said he has steeled himself for efforts by Bush supporters to discredit his film, which he said is already happening with attacks on his Web site and in newspapers amid the current campaign for the White House.
 
He has made no secret of the fact that he does not support Bush, and wants his reelection attempt to fail.
 
To counteract efforts challenging "Fahrenheit 9/11," he has hired Chris Lehane and Mark Fabiani, two former political advisers to Bill Clinton and Al Gore, to establish a "war room" that will immediately support any claims made in the movie that come under attack.
 
The group, he said, will be staffed by six to seven people and will operate 24 hours a day, monitoring newscasts and scanning newspapers, magazines and other publications for statements made discrediting the movie.
 
"You come at me with anything, we come back with the truth," Moore said.

Sorry to Scare You, Tony: Michael Moore Was Just Joking
 
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.

Ray Bradbury veut que Michael Moore lui rende son titre
LE MONDE | 25.06.04
 
Il y a six mois, Ray Bradbury, auteur de l'œuvre de science-fiction Fahrenheit 451, lit dans le quotidien professionnel d'Hollywood Variety que Michael Moore prépare un documentaire intitulé Fahrenheit 9/11. L'écrivain appelle aussitôt la société de production du film. "C'est mon titre, leur ai-je dit, il ne peut pas me prendre mon titre. Il n'a pas demandé la permission, il ne m'a même jamais appelé !" On promet à Bradbury que le réalisateur va l'appeler, mais celui-ci ne décroche le téléphone que quelques jours avant la sortie américaine du film, vendredi 25 juin. "Il s'est excusé de m'appeler aussi tardivement. Je lui ai dit : "Ne voyez-vous pas que vous avez volé mon titre ?" Il était très embarrassé."
 
Michael Moore a expliqué à Ray Bradbury, 84 ans, à quel point il avait adoré ses livres depuis qu'il était tout petit. "Je lui ai répondu que je tenais à ce qu'il me rende mon titre. Il m'appartient. Il n'a qu'à rebaptiser son film Michael Moore 9/11, ce que c'est en réalité ! J'accepterai ses excuses et je lui pardonnerai." On lui dit que Michael Moore justifie son titre en expliquant que c'est "la température à laquelle la vérité brûle". "C'est commode pour lui d'utiliser mon titre pour se faire de la publicité, en laissant croire aux gens que je suis impliqué dans ce film, alors que ce n'est pas le cas", nous répond Ray Bradbury.
 
Bradbury n'a toujours pas vu la Palme d'Or de Cannes et n'a été invité à aucune des avant-projections qui ont eu lieu à Los Angeles, où il vit et écrit. Il a déjà imaginé comment devrait se dérouler ce désistement officiel de titre : il souhaite une conférence de presse devant les caméras du monde entier, où Moore avouerait avoir commis une erreur et présenterait ses excuses. Ray Bradbury attend donc de pied ferme un nouveau coup de fil du cinéaste pour régler avec lui les circonstances de cette annonce publique. Le célèbre écrivain évoque l'immense succès de son livre futuriste, publié au début des années 1950, et étudié aujourd'hui dans les lycées. A-t-il l'intention de poursuivre Moore en justice ? "Non, il y a bien trop de gens qui font des procès dans ce pays, je ne vais pas rallier la meute." Et si Moore gardait son titre ? "Je suis un gentleman, j'insisterai, j'insisterai..."

Ray Bradbury: "Michael Moore is an asshole"
 
Michael Moore stole the title to his fictuous documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" from author Ray Bradbury (picture), who in 1953 wrote his dystopic scifi classic "Fahrenheit 451." So what does Ray Bradbury, now 84 years old, think about Moore using his book title for his Bush-bashing movie project?
 
The answer is, as journalists in the Swedish daily Dagens Nyheter found out when they called the author, that he is mighty pissed off. Here's my translation of the juicier bits of the interview.
 
    "Michael Moore is a screwed asshole, that is what I think about that case. He stole my title and changed the numbers without ever asking me for permission.
 
    Have you spoken to him?
 
    - He is a horrible human being. Horrible human!
 
    That Ray Bradbury thought Moore could take his Palme d'Or from Cannes and stuff it was extremely clear, even if he never expressed himself with those words, when DN reached the author in his home in Los Angeles. [...]
 
    Do you disagree with his opinions...
 
    -That has nothing to do with it. He copied my title, that is what happened. That has nothing to do with my political opinions.
 
    Bradbury said that he had tried to discuss the issue with Moore, but that the director avoided him.
 
    - I called his publisher. They promised he would call me the same afternoon, but he didn't.
 
    When was that?
 
    - A few months ago, when his plans about the movie was first made known.
 
    The conversation touched politics when Bradbury mentioned that Moore had ruined general Wesley Clark's chances to become the democrat's presidential candidate. Like several American commentators Bradbury means that Moore's support to Clark was a kiss of death when Clark did not distance himself from Moore's claim that Bush deserted from his military service.
 
    - He slandered the president to general Clark, and Clark allowed him to do it. Clark should have said: "Don't say that. It is not true." That day Clark lost his chance to become president.
 
    I understand. And you supported general Clark?
 
    - No. I support honesty.
 
    According to Bradbury others have asked him about Moore's use of his title, but "I don't want to make a big story out of it."
 
    - I detest all paparazzi journalism that is so common these days. If I just could make him change his title silently, that would be the best thing.
 
    Do you think that is possible, I mean the movie is very famous under that title now?
 
    - Who cares? Nobody will see his movie, it is almost dead already. Nevermind, nobody cares.
 
    But it won the Palme d'Or in Cannes?
 
    - So what? I have won prizes in different places and they are mostly meaningless. The people there hate us, which is why they gave him the d'Or. It's a meaningless prize.
 
Ray Bradbury was very clear that he considered Moore a dishonest thief, but refused to answer if he would press charges in any way.
