Title: Lack of context kills (bad documentaries)
Product review: FahrenHYPE clearly sidesteps the more important points made in Fahrenheit 9/11 (which are of public record) to dwell on instances in Moore's film which can be conveniently played out as crowd-pleasing pro-Bush rhetoric and be easily spun to suit the needs of the filmmakers. It's for good reason that the filmmakers carefully steered clear of the whole WMD fiasco to site one example.Like Fox News it relies heavily on doublespeak and opinion rather than facts and solid journalism to make its case. This is the modus operandi of the conservative media in dealing with unpopular truths. Questioning one's patriotism always seems a good way to gain support for something or other. In FahrenHYPE 9/11 everyone from Ed Koch to ex-Clinton mucky-muck Dick Morris try their hardest to paint Moore as a big, fat, wealthy opportunist who also happens to be an anti-American in defacto
