Default Re: Michael Moore's Sicko on Google Video

There was more debate about the Michael Moore Good Morning America video than there has been about the video so far. Moore is a liberal. He has the resources to make films and what not. Liberals like them and so he makes enough money and gets enough friendly financing from those who have it to give, and he keeps on doing it. But Moore is not a radical. He says a radical thing every now and again. But the overall thrust of his message is always decidedly liberal, never leading to revolution and always advocating for this or that kind of reform.

That is why it is instructive to note how the korporate media treats even a liberal. Look at him talk about the war.

And about healthcare.

YouTube - Michael Moore--Stunt or Journalism?

And notice how Moore, who isn't even a radical, makes them, them being the korporate media, look very bad. Imagine how murderously ghoulish they would look interviewing an articulate socialist or communist. Anyways, I'll have to see Sicko so that I can discuss that intelligently. Healthcare in the US, like most anything here, sucks if you don't have lots of money. If it looks like Sicko will help to change that, I'll support it
