Journal Neop2Lemus's Journal: Michael Moore - Not the good guy he claims to be 2

The BBC is reporting that Ray Bradbury, a sometimes brilliant science-fiction writer is furious over Michael Moore's use of his Book name Fahrenheit 451 to name his far left wing propaganda film: Fahrenheit 9/11.

What makes the story so offensive is that Bradbury apparently contacted MM's company over six months ago, was promised a return call, and MM only bothered to return the favour now, on the eve of his film's release, when it's too late to change the film's name. So MM, who portrays himself as anti establishment and anti-corporation, because of the crooked things they do, is apparently every bit as crooked as those he claims to expose.

Its a disappointment everytime another human inevitably turns out to be fundamentally self-serving, even those whose politics you don't agree with, but you'd give them respect as you'd like to believe they are out to raise the level of respect every human gets in this life.
