From the article:
Moore's agent, Ari Emanuel, told the New York Times that Eisner asked him last spring to pull out of the deal with Miramax. Emanuel said Eisner expressed particular concern that it would endanger tax breaks Disney receives for its theme park, hotels and other ventures in Florida, where President Bush's brother, Jeb Bush, is governor.
This is the country we live in? Is this completely insane to anyone else?
Although it makes for great press for the movie. Maybe that's what they've been planning all along?
