Besides, isnt he just out to hear himself speak?? Our continuing to pressure our elected officials, and expresssing our opinions on change professionally is the way to see change.
Can you enumerate, point by point how you disagreed with Moore about pilot pay? Have you even seen the film? He interviewed pilots, gathered data and put it into the film. Who says he's speaking on our behalf? Is The WSJ or MSNBC speaking on our behalf when they do a story on pilot pay? There is nothing wrong with pilot pay being exposed in a documentary film, regardless of what you think of the filmmaker.
As far as I'm concerned, more power to him. I wasn't a fan of Bowling for Columbine. However, I loved Roger and Me, Fahrenheit 9-11 and this new one.
