everyone uses propaganda. Though moore takes it to extremes.

Ok, i know he's providing an alternative point of view....
The stuff that isn't normally mentioned isn't normally mentioned because they are lies, deceptions....
What point have we missed? are we supposed to see the movie and simply say 'even tho he lied, tried to decieve us throughout the whole movie... he brought up a good point bush is evil.'
They weren't as entertaining because moore obviously has a flare for making boring things exciting....It seems although you are being ignorant by saying 'I can't remember the facts, but obviously moore is right', point out to me one of the arguments against moore from www.bowlingfortruth.com and how it is wrong....

I agree cherryblossom, everyone is guilty of spreading propaganda. Those who won't admit it are just kidding themselves thinking that they're morally right.
Everyone isn't telling obviously lies, purposely decieving people.. and when they are they should be put down for doing this.

If Moore ever came out woth anything that was not the truth, Bush would make sure the lie was exposed. Anyone would, if someones lying about you you go out there and set it straight.

Bush didn't do this, as of course it would place a spotlight on the facts raised in the movie which would be proved true, even worse, proved true by the Supreme Court, not just some fat guy in a baseball hat.

michael moore is a sensationalist. he subverts american and western ideals to spread his propaganda.

but it is his democratic right whether or not it is misinformed or he is selective in the "truths" he represents.

anything coming from the media should be viewed with a level of suspicion as to its motives, especially when it is fuelled by biased opinion. when i say media i include movies docos etc in to that category.

i smell a modern history syllabus elective in ten years.

Yea exactly, i'm with danie...

The people saying 'If he was lying bush would come out and expose him!'.
Al Gore claimed he invented the internet, did he get sued?
People have made movies, etc saying that moore is a liar, why doesn't he sue them if he's got so much 'evidence'.
Don't seem so stupid please people, i'm not a very smart person but that sort of argument is just dumb.
