Blast from the Past: Michael Moore trolling

I usually consider myself above “internet trolling” but I made a single exception back when Michael Moore’s film Sicko (imdb was released). Knowing how much internet attention his previous two films received for their “lies”, I put together a List of Lies and Untruths in Michael Moore’s Sicko, after watching a pre-release screener version of the movie.

I don’t really love Michael Moore films or anything (except Canadian Bacon a little bit) but I hate the people who always crawl out of the woodwork after every one of his movies and pretend like they have all sorts of knowledge as to what constitutes a ‘documentary’.

Anyway, it’s one of my favourite things I’ve ever written on the internet if only because the reaction in the comments section was hilarious, and it still gets comments fairly regularly. (It’s a first-page google hit for “Lies in Sicko”.)

“This person has a pathetic view of Canada and that upset me more than anything” is pretty good.
