RE: Bowling for columbine


Do you ask this question to the 'business as usual' journalists bought
and paid for by the media conglomerates? Is MM supposed to deliver
welfare to laid off workers?; restore lives to parents who lost kids
murdered by a gun? 

I think to get his 'against the grain' journalism out demands some
theatrics, and MM is that rare person who gets the message out to the
mainstream. I applaud his chutzpah. That is what America is supposed to
be about!

Maybe you don't agree with the message, but don't shoot the messenger.

Be skeptical of your Govt, not a performance artist/journalist!!!

And did any of the people he exploited, doing his Show, benefit other
than
emotionally from it?  Or did he drag all the money home himself?
