To do documentaries properly, you don't have to be neutral in the point you're trying to make, but if you're going to interview someone, you shouldn't leave out the part that defeats your argument. It's dishonest.
I'm sorry I compared you to Al Franken earlier.
Mods are supposed to see all.
I am going to watch it.
He even anonymously donated $12,000.00 to his nemesis, the owner of Moorewatch.com, who was having really bad problems
“After I posted about finding the plan and what the cost was, someone emailed me and asked if an ‘anonymous’ benefactor could offer to pay my first year’s premiums. $12,000. I was skeptical of course, but since I’m not an idiot, I accepted,” wrote Kenefick. “$12,000 was like manna from heaven at that time. As you all may remember, I was being bled dry by the scumbag that used to host the server on which this site resides. My business was almost dead, my wife was very, very ill and I was racking up a few little health problems of my own. That money made it possible for us to begin to turn our lives around.”
But who and where did the check come from?
“When the check arrived, I was overly cautious. I tracked the company that issued the check, the bank it was drawn on…I found a hotline you could call to check the status of drafts issued by this third-party company, and the number on the check (actually more like a money order) checked out. I even went so far as to see where the branches of the issuing bank might be physically located, and there are like five of them within walking distance of Moore’s home and office in New York City.”
The NY Daily News has confirmed that the check was indeed from Kenefick’s nemesis, Michael Moore. A man that Kenefick had attacked for years on end.
“I knew he was using me,” Kenefick now writes on his blog in an effort to beat Moore to the punch. “I knew he would try to turn this to his advantage some day. That day may be upon us. I was just warned by someone in the know that Moore is about to drop the hammer on me.”
Well guess what, Moore isn’t commenting on the matter. And I hope it stays that way. I tend to believe that Mike is a good guy, who has helped a lot of people with his films. Does he have an agenda? Who doesn’t. Kenefick certainly does:
“If it was you, Mikey…your $12,000 doesn’t buy my silence. It won’t buy my affection, nor will I shy away from talking about whatever may or may not be in your new film. I’ll still be the same guy, expressing my opinion and trying his best to research facts you tend to skip over or ignore. All you bought for your money - if it was yours - was the peace of mind of knowing you actually helped someone who needed it.”
Talk about being ungrateful. Talk about turning a nice gesture into a media opp for yourself and your agenda.

He also had lost a lot of weight when he was on Leno, he said he made a goal to lose weight and was working hard on it.
should be easy for someone like yourself....you just said he makes shit up.
He started on the weight thing after doing Sicko, realizing he was digging his own grave
He made an anti gin one, yet three full time body guards carry guns.
He made one about our health care and how great the Cuban system is, yet has never been there for his personal care.
Now he is talking bad about capitalism, yet has made millions thru the free market.
He has an agenda and takes away his cred to call them documentarys.
Personaly I have no problem with him doing it, I do however think that mindless people that lap it up as fact are not very bright

How does any of that disqualify his movies as documentaries?
For example, from memory, he went around asking congress members to send their children to die in Iraq in Fahrenheit 9/11. One particular congressman said something like, "Why does that matter?" Of course, that's in the film. But after Moore said why it mattered, this congressman pointed out that one of his children and two of his nephews WERE in Iraq. That didn't make it into the film.
It's this kind of practice that costs Moore. If he could somehow avoid doing douchey things like that, the real, good points he makes would be better understood and harder to argue with.
