The Real Micheal Moore?

I've seen some of Michael Moore's work and it had it's points but I also felt it somewhat irreverant satire more than anything else. This morning at 6 am I happen to be awake and watching C-Span when I was luckly enough to catch the above program. IMO, it's well worth consideration and pause for thought about Mr. Moore's intent and motive.

At the link above, look in the upright of the page and click on the link to watch the program. If you already hate Moore, it'll give you plenty of food to feed your appetite. If you love Moore, you may hate the program but if like me you have an open but questioning mind about Mr. Moore (I've never thought he was what he claimed in being indepenent or portraying himself as such and that's fine but be honest) this program will give you reason to pause and think about the man and his work as a filmaker.

Poor video. Maybe Leffler should go to film school or apply for a job at FOX news. Ron Paul for President!!!!!!!!!!

The fat, obnoxious slob and his pieces of crap have won an Oscar, 30 other awards and 15 more nominations.

Over,
I can't disagree with your point or some of the others either but I will say this. IMO Leffler blows a lid off of Mr. Moore that shows him to be the very manipulative, harsh and almost down right evil person that he lays claim on so many other people and some of that may in fact be deserved. Leffler shows in case after case where he actually goes back and talks with the folks that Moore filmed for his pieces and you begin to see that Moore is not for the little guy as he sez but is in fact out for himself. Threats of lawsuits by Moore on the smaller people he claims to the fighting for and next to nothing compensation for appearing in his films is just the tip of the iceburg. He's not the Robin Hood to the good people of Sherwood Forest that he claims to be IMO based on what I saw. How about the fact that he's not even from Flint Michigan at all? Yeah, I'm not kidding!

Leffler shows hard documents of the stocks Moore owns and among them are Phizer and Halliburton. Talk about the pot calling the kettle black and in the case of Moore's size and some of the people he attacks, it's a fitting claim.


Moore very well could be just as you say he is but it's only opinion. You have nothing to backup your claims based on what? Feelings? Emotions? What if you had just a little evidence to back up your claims? Watch the program only if for 10 to 15 minutes because there's plenty there to choose from. That's all I'm saying.

If you choose otherwise, that's cool and I even understand. I caught the show quite by accident and had I known it's content ahead of time I can't say for sure I would watch, especially at 6 am. I just happen to wake up and flipped on the TV and it was on C-Span just as Leffler was introduced and for what reason.

I thought I'd offer this info up just in case you thought the piece would glorify Moore and you might reconsider once hearing a few facts about it. Whether you see the piece or not, your opinion of the man does seem to fit what I saw in the program if that fact means anything to ya.

Alex,
Leffler by his own admission is not a filmmaker and he's using his own money (about $100k) to make and film this piece. No, it's not a fancy production by any means but what counts is the content IMO. I've seen fancy productions with infinite budgets to back them but in the end there was no real content. Leffler gives good content and food for thought so in that respect his film gets an A from me.

Also another side note about Moore. Leffler's daughter works as a reporter for a local Michigan TV station and once Leffler heated up his efforts, Moore personally threatened his daughter to her face that he would have her fired and she has no involvement in or with her father's efforts.

And this guy blasts Cheney's hard handedness in life!

M. Moore is loosing weight. Look up the jay leno interview. I take no sides, but he has alot of people talking and thats a good thing. Id say he has more balls than any of us, who take orders and hope for the best.
