According to a reader, this isn’t as big a triumph as Moore makes it sound.
Michael Moore’s latest comments about selling out the theatre in Fayetteville, NC are a bit misleading as should be expected from him. The theatre he sold out only has 38 seats per showing and there were seven showings which comes to approximately 266 tickets. Not exactly a blockbuster, as a resident I know there are more liberals here than that.
'Fahrenheit 9/11 ' opened Friday in Poland to some early reviews comparing director Michael Moore's polemical style to the heavy-handled propaganda of the country's former communist rulers.

Aye, I heard Lech talk at my first college. Damn interesting speech, though his translator had to be an ex-East German lesbian.

I am so enlighened now. I can't believe I have never seen the truth before.
Heh Had you going. The real review.
Cups of truth. Surrounded by mountains of dung.
Had me laughing the Mikey suggested that Bush instilled fear in the public just to influence them. What a Hippocrit.
In marriage there is always one person right. And the other one is the husband.
Was fixing one of the fucked up computers of the customer service staff yesterday & heard it on the radio. Something like $83 million?

I have no problem with him suing Moore, he didn't interview him and used the quote out of context. However, $75 mill for him and $10 mill for her seems a little excessive.
Damon is asking for up to $75 million because of "loss of reputation, emotional distress, embarrassment, and personal humiliation."
In addition, his wife is suing for another $10 million because of the "mental distress and anguish suffered by her spouse."
$85 mil is kinda excessive & the crime don't exactly fit the punishment. Legally, asking for that sort of settlement is a joke. However, I wouldn't terribly mind seeing it happening just cos Mike uses cheapo editing tricks.

Once again, I spoke without engaging my brain again. I forgot in civil suits it isn't an all or nothing, so going high makes a lot of sense.
It makes sense, but it's still not justified.

He's nothing more than a shock jock who makes movies.
