Apparently CNN made a few mistakes of their own in the process and Moore threatened to become "Their Greatest Nightmare" which elicited this uncustomary backpeddle and even rarer for a left wing propaganda organization public correction. They don't wanna alienate that looney lib audience base now do they? So on their knees they quickly got sucking right up to King Lardass.
Moore Settles CNN FeudMoore will be more skeptical of what's on CNN? Well, if they didn't find anything wrong then was the extra extra large ball of lard so mad? Here's the meltdown in case you missed it last week or so ago. click the player for full sized if you wish
Movie & TV News @ IMDb.com - WENN - 18 July 2007: "Filmmaker Michael Moore has ended his feud with CNN after the U.S. news network admitted making mistakes in their coverage of his latest movie Sicko. Moore launched into an 11-minute rant on CNN show The Situation Room after host Wolf Blitzer and chief medical correspondent Dr. Sanjay Gupta highlighted alleged false information in his documentary.
After the director vowed to CNN to 'become your worst nightmare,' the network released a statement, answering his accusations and admitting to making two mistakes. During Gupta's on-air report, he said Moore had inaccurately claimed Cuba spends $25 per person on health care. However, they have now admitted that his movie estimates Cuba's spending at $251 per person. CNN said a transcription error had lead to this mistake.
In CNN's statement, a spokesman said, 'It's ironic that someone who has made a career out of holding powerful interests accountable is so sensitive to having his own work held up to the light by impartial journalists, as we did in our examination of Sicko.' Following CNN's statement, Moore is now willing to forget the fight and move on. He says, 'I trust the intelligence of the American people.
I don't think there's a whole lot more to do with this other than I and others are going to be a lot more skeptical with what I see on CNN. In the report they say that I fudged the facts and they didn't find a single fact that I fudged.
These people sure didn't have any problem locating and then identifying errors and misrepresentations in the typical liberal loose with the facts Crockumentary.
