Sure. But are you going to tell me that Moore did not know the hospital he selected and used in his documentary was a gross exaggeration of what the typical Cuban hospital operated like?
What the hell good is that?
There are outliers in all fields. If his documentary was designed to highlight what the Cuban outlier hospital looked like, fine. But he presented it as an average Cuban hospital, which is dishonest and closing in fast on a lie.
A statement can be inaccurate without being a lie

Of course they are not, when you truncate them.
No, you still fail. There's no contradiction there. There's not even any conflict. You simply are too stupid and too prejudice to understand this. To the rest of us, it's obvious.
FYI, making a documentary about something that is known by the director/producer to be "not accurate" is equivalent to being "dishonest".
That's not what Moore did, nor did I imply that he did. You're thinking of Fox News. Those are the people who outright lie to their audience.

Conservatives: Masters of Hypocrisy.
Of course, all the conservatives will simply ignore the above videos -- and I only took a small sample -- hoping that the audience of this thread will forget watching them. There is no response to all the blantant and outragous lies that Fox News and all of conservative media puts out to misinform and mislead the public.
In contrast, Michael Moore has never decieved the public. I don't agree with all of Moore's opinions and proposed solutions, but no honest person would call Moore a liar. Fox News is nothing but liars telling the biggest and most damaging lies to the American people.
Sure. But are you going to tell me that Moore did not know the hospital he selected and used in his documentary was a gross exaggeration of what the typical Cuban hospital operated like?
Fuck ya. Moore was wrong, but not deliberately so. If you want to see deliberate, purposeful misleading of the public, just watch any of the above videos in this post.
Furthermore, being factually wrong about one supporting fact does not undermine a thesis that is supported by hundreds of other verified correct facts. As I stated before,
If you provide ten mathematical proofs of a theorem and only nine turn out to be correct proofs, that doesn't make the theorem false.
The person being dishonest here is you, SoftShell.

If moore wasn't deliberate in his hospital selection, then he is so stupid to have picked that hospital that he had no business producing the documentary in the first place. It gave the wrong impression of Cuban hospitals.
As an aside, thanks for all the insults. Looks like you are a bottom feeder...

He is not exploring an issue, he is simply proceeding from a foregone, inflammatory conclusion and editorializing any way he can to support that foregone conclusion. It is the exact opposite of enlightenment or dialog.

http://www.ijreview.com/2014/06/145100-multimillionaire-activist-michael-moore-cat-fight-wife-divorce-settlement/
Multimillionaire director Michael Moore, who regularly rails against the rich, is in a nasty battle with his estranged wife over their pending divorce settlement. One of his claims: “She†spent millions on “her†lakefront mansion.
In court filings, Moore claims his wife “unilaterally wasted a large percentage of the marital fundsâ€:
The liberal activist director and his wife, Kathleen Glynn, are scheduled for trial next month in a Michigan courtroom not far from the sprawling lakefront mansion that the Hollywood power contends became a money pit that cost five times what his wife claimed she would spend on the home.
Moore and Glynn jointly own “multiple substantial residences and multiple companies,†including Dog Eat Dog Films, the production company behind hit movies like “Roger &Me†and “Bowling for Columbine.â€
The couple’s real estate holdings include a total of nine properties in Michigan and New York. The duo co-owns a Manhattan condo that was created through the combination of three separate units.
While the couple’s combined net worth has not been made public, Moore’s estimated net worth alone stands at $50 million. And hey, good for him.
But…this is a guy who has railed against wealth in America for years: “fat-cat corporations,†“one-percenters,†“rich Republicans,†on and on.
At the end of the day, it appears that our friend Michael Moore is pretty darned concerned about money as well.
