Quit after one day for GM. Fired after a few months for Mother jones. Ditto for Ralph Nader. Fired after 8 episodes of TV Nation for one network. Fired after 7 episodes for Fox. Yep, Fox. fired "reportedly for refusing to run an article critical of the Sandanista rebels in Nicaragua that Moore believed was both inflammatory and inaccurate. Fired cause he wouldn't run with something inflammatory and inaccurate. LOL. Yeah right, that's believable - NOT. But it's what he would say. He also claimed Nader fired him cause Nader was jealous of a book advance Moore received.

Attacking Moore personally doesn't change the content of his film. That has held up despite blistering attacks from the right. If you compare the 56 issues in the film the rightwing objects to, no more thna half dozen of them remain in question. The rightwing has some amazingly lame excuses and spin to try and debate Moore. Amazing they still rely on the Saddam/Al Qaida lie too. They just wont let that one go. Having to rely on stories 12 years old. Did Al Qaida even exist 12 years ago?
