For those who want to catch a bit of Fahrenheit 9\/11<\/i>, but don’t want to toss money into Michael Moore’s coffers (or, conversely, for anyone who wants to refer to arguments and assertions made in the flick), someone has placed a transcript (of at least the first 40-odd minutes) of the flick here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

I expect various media legal types will be all over this like a ton of bricks (and with some justification), so view it while you can. Though, of course, if Moore’s really interested in as many people as possible being exposed to and influenced by the assertions in his opus, I’d expect him encourage stuff like this, or at least turn a blind eye to it.<\/p>\n
