41. The problem is that it is very rarely mentioned as a "work of fiction"
most advertisements for it say as such...its only recently that I've even heard that it was anything but truth based on reports...

I'm not a fan of Michael Moore, but:
1. his "movie" was not free, you had to pay to see it
2. most people thought it was propaganda chose not to buy the ticket
3. the media made very clear when they were talking about it that it was coming from the "left-leaning" Mchael Moore...NO ONE!! would go into that movie thinking otherwise...

Most Americans are going to beleive a movie that is marketed like "The Path to 9/11" is...it is advertised as taken from realy life events...

And, its the same as what happens when 70% of people believe that Iraq was a part of 9/11, inaccurate and completely incorrect information can lead to absolutely tragic consequences...
