Film giant Disney is facing a massive boycott from liberals - following its refusal to distribute Michael Moore's controversial documentary, Fahrenheit 9/11.
Furious film-goers are threatening to avoid buying anything from the Disney stable - including books, toys and movies - in protest to their decision to ban subsidiary Miramax from releasing the Palme D'Or-winning film.
Fahrenheit 9/11 looks at the relationship between President George W. Bush's clan and the Bin Laden family and criticizes Bush's foreign policy and his war in Iraq.
A petition, which can be found at Democrats.com, reads, "You are censoring one of the most important filmmakers in America.
"This is unacceptable in a democracy. As consumers, we are not powerless. We will protest with our wallets - by boycotting Disney products until you agree to distribute Fahrenheit 9/11."
But Disney spokeswoman Zenia Mucha retorts to The Scoop, "It's a free country. We have a right to decline distribution. They have a right to do whatever they think is in their interest."
According to insiders, Disney opted not to distribute the film for fear of losing tax breaks afforded to their Florida theme parks by the state's governor, Jeb Bush, brother to the President.
