LOL! Leno Cuts to Commercial When Moore Brings Up Uniinsured Leno Staff Member
Did you see that? Moore's talking about a guy he did a show with who was going to die because the HMO was denying him an operation, and then he says to Leno, yeah, I remember YOU telling me about a guy on the staff here who had no insurance, NBC employee...

Leno: "And we'll be right back with MICHAEL MOORE, ladies and gentleman." Cut to, commercial!

3. Who doesn't LOVE Michael Moore??! The man ROCKS! He's fearless.
I loved the story about him holding a funeral for the insured man who was going to die because his HMO wouldn't cover his operation...he held the funeral, pall bearers included, on the lawn of the HMO company! :rofl: They ended up paying for the operation and the guy is alive today.:) :loveya: Moore's a treasure.:loveya:

7. I remember that episode of The Awful Truth.
The guy needed a pancreas transplant, I believe. And I remember the mock funeral in front of the CEO's house. Excellent episode.

5. I thought Leno did a good job with the interview.
He even praised the Brits treatment of his MIL, and he allowed Michael plenty of time. Very little negative talk. It was a nice segment.

6. He did until it got close to offending his corporate bosses.
Then he cut the Mike.
