Just thinking out loud here, F9/11 is a documentary that covers several years of history in just over two hours. Therefore it cannot possibly contain all the "truths", so Moore had to select what "truths" to include. From a pseudo-philosophical standpoint, without all the truth, can you have any truth at all? Obviously what Fox, CNN, ABC, etc., even the CBC present is not 100% objective. Nothing on our plane of existence is, because no one is omnipresent or omniscient. The very few pieces that are included in a documentary or news report (or in one person's experience of an event) provide an incomplete and therefore biased picture, despite the best intentions.
However, I did a quick Google for authoritative refutations of claims Moore made and surprisingly, didn't find too many that weren't filled with even more convoluted reasoning than Moore's film. So maybe at least on his own level, the right-wing had a hard time disputing his assertions.
