FH 9-11: Did Any Major Network Or Cable News Shows Cover This Today ???

[WillyT]

I'm not including Internet News or Newspapers, just television.

The 'forwarded' Iraqi handover was breaking news at about bedtime for me last-night (10:30 PDT or so), and a number of us on-line at the time thought that MM's movie hoopla would be quickly swept to the side. Didn't get a chance to watch any news until right now, so I'm asking how bad it was today as far as TV news on MM's FH 9-11.

To her surprise, the film is a block buster!

5. Saw quite a bit on Chicago TV all day

mostly positive. And the protesters REALLY came off like cranky malcontents.

Aren't you tired of the annoying broad what keeps calling it "crap"? C'mon, baby. have the courage of your convictions and call it "shit" already! Ain't they payin' youse enough?

Ebert & Roper LUUUUUUUVVVE it up lots!

6. Not that I saw...but check out this thoughtful review

I can't start posts yet, so will place this here. The link will only work for a week or so - but here is a pretty decent review that was in a fine local newspaper, the Independent.

8. Welcome. review is well worth the time.

I like that the media's role in the lead-up to war was mentioned.

Moore most likely went easy on the press since his film's promotion depended on the press itself. ( I have not seen film yet, just relying on the critic's view that moore tread lightly on that topic.)
