no, i don't watch documentaries to provoke an argument. i watch them to be informed fairly and evenly about whatever it covers... that is the point. a documentary is intended to be a medium that is so factually based that it shouldn't spark massive argument. looked up the word in the dictionary just to be sure. if i want someone's politicaly charged views i'll read an editorial or post here on TFP... not watch a documentary.

i really am not concerned with your particular feelings on moore or this movie, i just wouldn't expect you to take a viewpoint other than the one you took. what you take for fear is really a very honest strain of incredulity.
