This was some pretty interesting TV last night. Wendell Potter, former CIGNA executive, appeared with Michael Moore and talked about the PR campaign to discredit Moore and his movie “Sicko.”
I’m curious, because I thought “Sicko” was such a powerfully persuasive piece: Did you see the movie? If not, why not?

couldn’t afford it, knew what was in it FIRST HAND…
Yeah, “Sicko” was great, on a par with Moore’s “Fahrenheit 911.” And last night’s segment on Countdown was really compelling. Anything that causes KO to replate the second half of his show has to be worth watching!
Sicko was great except for the part where Moore goes out of his way to discredit Hillary as a future champion of health care reform.
Saw it. Bought it. Saw last night’s Olbermann as well. Once again, though, the question of media incompetence (collusion?) in drum beating the smear was NOT addressed. As Maddow said, THAT’S the real story.
I did, however, round up some friends and spend the money to see Capitalism: A Love Story in the theater.
Didn’t watch it because Michael Moore is fat.
Actually watch it and loved it.
