(Pete) Townshend fuming over Fahrenheit row
Advertisements [?]
I always though the Who sucked...now I have proof.

-------------------------------------------------------------------

Rock legend Pete Townshend has launched a scathing attack at film-maker Michael Moore, saying he has been "bullied and slurred" by the director.

Last year, the Stupid White Men author Moore approached the The Who guitarist to ask the star permission to use his song Won't Get Fooed Again in his controversial documentary Fahrenheit 9/11, which criticises George Bush's administration.

Townshend refused to let the Oscar-winning director use the song, because the rocker didn't enjoy Moore's previous films Bowling for Columbine and Roger and Me.

Townshend fumes: "Michael Moore has been making some claims, using my name, which distort the truth.
