Default Re: Mr. Sicko strikes again: Michael Moore Has a Boner for Cuba


[ QUOTE ]
When people splice together various events, all the while knowing it is a propaganda piece, and call it a documentary they are marketing it as a "fair" representation.

Michael Moore would be the first to agree that his movies are propaganda. When Moore himself talks about his films he says that they are not like traditional documentaries and that he views them more as "nonfiction personal essays."

The claim that Moore is selling his films as "fair" rings as hollow as would someone claiming that an editorial wasn't balanced (because a newspaper is supposed to be fair) or that Bill O'Reilly (sp?) is unfair (because a news channel is supposed to be.)
