for one, he said they were creating missles at lockheed martin to kill people with. they're actually used to launch satellites.

he also fudged some details about Willy Horton, made Heston seem like he was pushing to hold rallies near Columbine by editing speeches together, lied about what he was reading off of a plaque on a fighter plane, lied about the ease of getting bullets in Canada.
Just read that website, it covers most of it/.

But while he may have lied about certain aspects, my main point is that you don't have to agree with all he says but that his film inspires to think.
For example I knew a lot of the stuff in the film already but many of my friends and acquaintences did not, it made them think and investigate things for themselves.
Think about this fact, I believe so far it's 18 states that now accept mexican papers as valid ID's for illegal aliens so they can apply for work and drivers licenses. I forget the name of it, it's basically an ID that you can acquire in mexico. Thanks to many of the states "don't ask don't tell" policies towards imigration now, with bloombergs "don't wanna know" policy I am amazed we are not one of the states.. yet.
6 months after 9/11, most of the men on those planes who killed 3,000 people were granted their visas. Maybe next time terrorists won't have to bother with visas and get these mexican papers, get a valid drivers license and they are set.
You have to question these things and look into them cause it's a scary direction we are heading towards. Iraq isn't any safer now, the bombings are still taking place and afghanistan is a distant memory.

Well, yeah, it can inspire one to think, and eventually, if one thinks about this particular movie long enough and does some research, they'll find the truth.
No one is saying the movie isn't entertaining. I'm simply saying that alot of it is fabricated just to suit his point of view. He could have been honest and said he was making a work of fiction, but he didn't. Instead, he claimed it was a documentary, and most people have been foolish enough to believe everything he says without doing the research.

I believe the proper term for what Michael Moore does is 'propaganda.'
08-29-2003, 10:38 PM
Bush is more guilty of propoganda lies than a 100 michael moore's.
08-29-2003, 10:41 PM
True. Everything out of Bush's mouth is a lie of some sort. Let's get those 'Evildoer's', shit he should start with his own administration first.

I dug Bowling for Columbine, but it is propaganda, just refreshing propaganda because it's from the other end of the spectrum. The real deal is probably somewhere in the middle. I mean, the introduction to Howard Zinn's People's History of the United States, which a lot of left-wingers take to be the gospel truth, Zinn says that his history book is no more correct than the one you get growing up in a public school system. The truth is most likely somewhere in the middle, he said.
I really enjoy the concept behind Michael Moore's work over the years; I just wish somebody a little less pretentious and annoying was doing it without so much attention paid to himself in the process.
