Question: Did this film use the same tatics as they claim Moore uses?


Basically I am asking if these film makers made a film that totally mis-represents Moore, using exactly the same tatics Moore uses in his films?

For example, did they get an interview with Moore, but not include it? Did they take footage, edit it together with unrelated footage, to make it look like Moore said\did things that did not happen?

If they did, how are we to trust them anymore than Moore? Is this a film to demostrate they can be as deceptive about Moore just as good as Moore is about being deceptive in his films.

Or.... Is this film good investigative journalism that expose Moore to be a modern day crapetbagger that found a gold mind in libertal left, telling them what they want to hear, not because its the truth, but because they want to beleive what he is selling is true.

I haven't been able to watch this doc yet, but I heard that they did that purposely.

I had to watch this film last week in my social media class. Overall, the people in my class thought this documentary did a great job at staying objective.
