Michael Moore's next project should be about media fomented ignorance and violence

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

It's an important issue and it should be addressed.

Maybe Ken Burns would be better at giving a historical perspective. But hate speech leads to hate, leads to violence.

We need to have some kind of documentary comprehensively showing what hate/ propaganda led to in the Holocaust, Father Coughlin, Radio Rwanda, Alan Berg, etc.

1. AMEN!!!

2. Berg

3. Great idea. In fact, a collaboration of Moore and Burns would be great.

There is a real darkness in America right now because of it. It also has many historical parallels.

4. I second that!

[thunder rising]

5. You know that is actually a GREAT idea ... now if Michael Moore sees it as well this would be great

6. RIGHT ON TARGET!!! THE MEDIA IS SPEWING AMPLIFIED HATRED FOR FATTENING THEIR BOTTOM LINE!!!

[Echo In Light]

7. That, profits, and just as importantly, perpetuating an ideological stratagem to shape opinion

[RKP5637]

8. Exactly!!! Well Said!!!

[tabbycat31]

9. yes

[grasswire]

10. yeah why doesn't he take on the press itself?

That would do America a great service.

11. And about media integrity...manipulation of facts, out-of-context quotes and one-sided stories..

...etc. - basically: media integrity ('cause right now they have NONE)

12. Another ironic classic! He's media, and he's already a capitalist!

[Phoebe Loosinhouse]

13. The only irony is you proclaiming it where none exists.

You remind me of those guys who sweep the beaches with their metal detectors, triumphantly locating and unearthing. . .beer cans.
