US soldier loses 9/11 film claim

A US judge has thrown out a claim by an Iraq war veteran who alleged a TV clip of him was used without his consent in Michael Moore's film Fahrenheit 9/11.

Sgt Peter Damon, 34, who lost both arms in Iraq, claimed Moore used an interview he did with NBC's Nightly News without asking permission.

Sgt Damon said use of the clip in Moore's documentary made him appear anti-war and against President Bush.
