Bush Supporters Angered Over Fahrenheit 9/11 Viewing at Library
Edited on Sat Oct-16-04 11:52 PM by rndmprsn
this could get interesting...

An Ohio library is planning to provide a public showing of Fahrenheit 9/11 after an inability to keep up with the ongoing requests for the film from its video library. In order to provide balance, the libraries administrators have decided to also air FahrenHype 9/11, a recently produced counter to Michael Moore's hard-hitting documentary.

Note that while the library does serve as a polling place, the viewing is planned a week before the election.

4. it's incredible....i just watched "quiz show"
i was flipping through the channels and watched the last half of the movie "quiz show" and it made me realize how low the media has fallen ethically...

back then they felt the need to have congressional hearings over dis-honesty in a freaking quiz show! thess days dis-honesty is a regular currency...in fact i don't think the media could exist without it...reality shows are staged, partisan pundits spin the truth and make 6 figures for it, if it bleeds it leads, and now sinclair broadcasting can run roughshod and attack a presidential candidate 2 weeks before and election while the same media keeps F/911 off the air-waves.

one of the closing lines in the movie was where the up and coming prosecuter who has just witnessed the media protecting itself and trashing other peoples lives and careers says..."TV will get all of us in the end"

indeed it might...but not without a fight.

7. No I haven't seen "hype" 911
but I heard that Ann Coulter has some commentary in it. I won't support anything that involves her. What a waste of molecules.
GO KERRY/EDWARDS..

6. Are they always going to be ...
angered by something?

I swear, of all the words I can equate with Neo-Repuli-cons, anger is getting to be number one on the list!
