Factchecking Fahrenheit
Since the Michael Moore film is still having an influence on politics (it may be running on a cable and satellite Pay-per-view just before the election), this site may come in handy: Footnote Fahrenheit 9/11 is a site by a Chicago attorney and former journalist who has backgrounded the entire film. The site is part of a larger site, Footnote TV which looks into issues brought up on influential TV programs such as West Wing or The Daily Show.
