Michael Moore is a documentary film maker. There is nothing about the documentary genre of film that requires political neutrality or equal representation of voices.

Tooblue, it's interesting to see you struggle with the dark side (the mullah-side). Embrace it! "EVERYONE WHO PARTICIPATES IN THAT SHOW OR WATCHES THAT SHOW IS GOING TO H-E-L-L!"

Before Moore, most documentaries tried to have some truthfulness. But I haven't reviewed numerous documentaries. I remember the most famous one of Supersize Me, which seemed to make a point and not to exaggerate things.

I've seen many, many documentaries that take a position. It's the rare one that doesn't appear to take one.
Everything from family farms closing to the absurdity of war. |

I understand there are nuances, and I am certain the general public does not. He is a myth-maker and fictionist.
