I edited your statement to make it more correct. By 2008, Old Media's obsolescence will be more apparent. They threw everything they had at GWB in an Alamo-esque last stand, and failed. Now they will descend into impotence, and their propaganda will be irrelevant.
But it will be fun to see who Michael Moore and Old Media attacks in the next four years.

Why do you consider F9/11 propaganda? *If there was a "Bizzaro M. Moore" that was looking into a liberal's history as our M. Moore did to Dub'ya, I'm sure you'd be all over it. I think that the Bush family ties to the Bin Laden's and Saudi royalty is a valid issue. That Bin Laden's family was flown out of the US after the attacks when everyone else was grounded, even Bush Sr was odd to say the least. Bush Sr's gross misuse of his position is not very honerable IMO.
There are some opinions expressed, but there was also some truth in that film. Did you ever even consider what he was saying had any truth to it, or do you plug your ears and hum until it went away? Have you even seen the film?

I haven't seen the film. Isn't Michael Moore the author of the book "Stupid White Men"? He makes money from controversy and insulting people.

I didn't watch it until after the elections, I would recommend watching it with an open mind and to read up on the topics he brings up.

Little, as it didn't rely on fabrications, shaky postulates, fancy editing, half-truths or anything else that serves as a staple in a Michael Moore story.
I totally agree with you that FACTS are about as distant from what Michael Moore represents as anything I can think of. While I find his garbage creative and entertaining, that's all I find in most of his works (especially his most recent one).
If he didn't have such a one-sided agenda that was pushed at the cost of reality, perhaps his story would be MUCH more compelling...

It simply offers a different perspective; one that the media certainly hasn't put forth.
Because it's not from the typical liberal mouthpieces, it is equivocated as BS?

The Bush family ties IIRC had been disolved long before 9/11. They were largely once removed connections I think, though it was awile back when I looked at them. Nothing incriminating...just played up by Moore.
You also do know it was noted Bush critic & terrorist czar Richard Clark that APPROVED the flight carrying the Bin Laden relatives..and that Bush was not informed.
Bush Sr. missuse of position was what exactly??

lol @ different perspective. this thread isn't about inequality in the media, it's about mm bashing. that post was just left over propaganda bs which was obviously unobjective and balanced to the right. there's not one example there that evenly matches in context. how ironic that wolfguy's post is michael moore-esque in it's own way.
