Jesus, did everyone hear NPR's pre-movie release hit piece on Michael Moore this morning?
It was unbelievable. At the end of the story, they featured an annoyed Moore's critique of NPR and its style of reporting (familiar to us all) ... allowing the reporter to finish the piece with an insouciant and snide retort which ... oh man, it was just the essence of everything I hate about NPR.
I'm just going to add that the whole argument of NPR's piece is that Moore is a unrepetant and serial fabulist, exaggerator, liar and Borat-like deceiver of well-intentioned dupes.
She should be fired for this story, in my opinion. It was Fox-worthy.
My name is Matthew Murrey and I'm from Florida, but have been living in the Midwest since 1984. I started this blog because no one else was blogging NPR's drift toward the right - and it made more sense than yelling at the radio.

I make every effort not to interfere with comments - BUT I will generally delete violent, gratuitously vulgar, or obscene posts. I realize it can be a subjective judgment call. Even when you're really angry, try to play nice.

I'm still seething.
