| Newspaper Says Moore Film Used Fake Front Fri Jul 30, 5:36 PM ET BLOOMINGTON, Ill. - Filmmaker Michael Moore's Bush-basing documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11" apparently has upset more than Republicans. Reuters Slideshow: Michael Moore The (Bloomington) Pantagraph newspaper in central Illinois has sent a letter to Moore and his production company, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., asking Moore to apologize for using what the newspaper says was a doctored front page in the film, the paper reported Friday. It also is seeking compensatory damages of $1. A scene early in the movie that shows newspaper headlines related to the legally contested presidential election of 2000 included a shot of The Pantagraph's Dec. 19, 2001, front page, with the prominent headline: "Latest Florida recount shows Gore won election." The paper says that headline never appeared on that day. It appeared in a Dec. 5, 2001, edition, but the headline was not used on the front page. Instead, it was found in much smaller type above a letter to the editor, which the paper says reflects "only the opinions of the letter writer." "If (Moore) wants to 'edit' The Pantagraph, he should apply for a copy-editing job," the paper said. Lions Gate Entertainment did not immediately return phone calls seeking comment Friday. |

Read it and weep: conclusive proof that Michael Moore is a lying scumbag. You will not convince me otherwise unless you respond to each and every of the 59 points, only 1 of which did Moore have a good response to.
The Dave Kopel piece responds to every one of the lame defenses brought up on Moore's pages. If you bother to read through it, maybe you'll be convinced.
Kopel is no member of the VRWC....he's a Naderite. He just goes about his politics honestly, unlike Moore and his supporters.
Dislike Bush or not, but don't assosciate and defend such a dishonest, dispicable person. It merely discredits your cause.

| Originally posted by tupsox Read through it. While it consists mostly of blatant deceits, Moore indeed lies outright on multiple occasions. Additionally, the difference between deceit and lying is spurious in this instance, as Moore intends for his audience to come away with an impression that is clearly counter to fact. By intentionally hoping to give his audience a false impression, he is -effectively- lying, even if each individual clause in each sentence can somehow be construed as true. |

| Originally posted by tupsox What does that have to do with Michael Moore's lies, deceits, and distortions? Looks like you're trying to change the subject. Remember, Kopel is not part of the VRWC, so he's probably not featured in that database you linked to. |

| I'm browsing through this database. Some worthwhile material. However, alot of the "Fact" refutations of supposed "Distortions", particularly regarding quotes by administrations officials on Iraq, rely on the power of hindsight, which is disingenuous to say the least. At least the source is open about its anti-conservative bias, but i think disingenuous does summarize a good deal of the records in the database. However, rather than respond to this, I'd rather you respond to the fact that Michael Moore is a lying scumbag |
Thanks MisterOpus for shutting up the fools

Oh the love in the room from both sides is just so thick, it's like an all encompassing fog.
Or it could be just a lotta hot steam from everyone. Can't really tell at this point, but it sure is relaxing.....
