[Marxism] Michael Moore Anticipates Fahrenheit 9/11 Follow-Up
So many on the left whined about Michael Moore that
it was necessary to make up a web-page defending him:

Michael Moore Anticipates Fahrenheit 9/11 Follow-Up
Los Angeles, Nov 12 (Prensa Latina) US filmmaker Michael
Moore announced here Thursday he is girding up for shooting
"Fahrenheit 9/11 and 1/2," a documentary based on the same
issues as its previous flick, containing similar corrosive
criticism.
"We want to get the cameras rolling now and have it ready
in two (to) three years," to coincide with the coming
electoral campaign, Moore disclosed.
"Fifty-one percent of the American people lacked
information (in this election), and we want to educate and
enlighten them. They weren't told the truth," he said to
the press.
"The official mourning period is over today," Moore added,
"and there is a silver lining: George W. Bush is prohibited
by law from running again."
Moore shook the White House's foundations with Cannes 2004
Palm d'Or winning documentary "Fahrenheit 9/11," a dive
into the 'backstage action' leading Bush to his first term
and a harsh attack to his foreign policies.
His images revealed the President's links with Saudi
families who control oil industry, while gave a
warts-and-all portrait of one of the most abhorred Head of
State ever for the art and intellectual circles in the
country.
Screened after overtaking many hindrances aimed to
frustrate its commercial premiere, "Fahrenheit 9/11"
grossed nearly $120 million during its abbreviated
theatrical run in the US. Released in October, the DVD
earned another $2 million its first week, both figures very
unusual for a documentary of a political slant.
Although Moore put the GOPs' backs up, his denunciation
reached the entire United States and made a great impact in
the international public opinion.
