Headline on MSNBC..."SICKOS TARGET ALL AGES"...Freudian?
Talking about a pervert that sneaks into windows and fondles women.
Why the term "sickos"?
Is it done deliberately to marginalize Michael Moore's film? I can honestly say that I have never seen that term used in this way.

1. "Sickos" has been used to describe the "mentally unstable" LONG before Moore used
it as the title to his film.

2. It is a slang term
Not one that I have ever seen a news organization use.

3. Sort of like the AP story of Moore's talk at Cannes
where they quoted him as saying that Bush "flaunts" the Constitution?

4. Whoever expected any objectivity from the corporate media?
Or even any truth in a relevant form?

Good thing we don't have to rely on these bastards anymore!
