Michael Moore Barred From New York Stock Exchange
email from MM



Today is the Day for "Sicko"

June 29, 2007

Friends,

This is it! Two years in the making! The day that our new film, "Sicko," arrives in theaters all across North America! Click here to see where the nearest one is to you.

After you go, let me know what you think. Oh, and send us a photo or a video from your cell phone to show us what it looked like at your theater. We'd love to post a photo from each of the 440 movie theaters showing "Sicko."

To read more about the movie, you can go to www.michaelmoore.com.

Here's what this morning's review in the L.A. Times said: "It's likely his most important, most impressive, and most provocative film." Okay, what do they know? I prefer to trust the assessment of E! Television Online: " 'Sicko' - the best movie ever? Maybe." Maybe? MAYBE?! When will they ever give me a break?

It's been a weirdly funny week. First Larry King bumped me for Paris Hilton. Then today, when CNBC invited me to the floor of the New York Stock Exchange for an interview, the stock exchange said I was barred from the building. On top of that, Tony Blair is gone, Cheney says he's no longer answerable to anyone's elected government, and I simply don't want an iPhone. Just another week in America.

Hope you enjoy the movie!

Yours,
Michael Moore

3. CNBC was supposed to interview him there. Obviously,
they were afraid. He sure does make people shake in their boots or wing-tips.

7. It does to me.
Michael is a threat to their bottom line. It's amusing how afraid of the truth they are.

8. Will be huge!
I've seen this movie and it is a real eye opener, if not a major shock.

I just experienced my own medical system nightmare and am ready to take to the streets for UHC.

Everyone MUST see this!

10. WFT!~?
:wtf: "Then today, when CNBC invited me to the floor of the New York Stock Exchange for an interview, the stock exchange said I was barred from the building."

The thing about Michael is ..he never loses his sense of humor!

"Here's what this morning's review in the L.A. Times said: "It's likely his most important, most impressive, and most provocative film." Okay, what do they know?

11. maybe michael should do an expose
on the ponzi scam called wall street?

get all the facts out about just how manipulated the economy is, all for the benefit of those wall street "movers and shakers".
