Figuring the specific reason iNDEMAND decided to bail on airing "The Michael Moore Pre-Election Special" will be an interesting pursuit. The company, owned by Time Warner, Cox and Comcast cable companies, announced Friday it wouldn't be showing "The Michael Moore Pre-Election Special" due to "legitimate business and legal concerns," which is apparently a euphemism for political pressure. Moore has stated that he and iNDEMAND signed a contract to air the special (which would have included a showing of Fahrenheit 9/11) in early September, and that he believes that pressure from "top Republican people" caused the turnaround. Moore is considering taking legal action against the company, he said. An iNDEMAND spokesperson said any legal action Moore might take against the company would be "entirely baseless and groundless."
