I knew the title of Michael Moore Is A Big Fat Stupid White Man was a reference to Moore's latest book and a (different and, as far as I know, unrelated) book by Al Franken; I sort of assumed it would be in Moore's style -- maybe a little more respect for the truth, but generally ranty. I was interested, then, to read Lileks say:Note: 89 pages into the book, the title remains the sole ad hominem remark. And even so it?s a winking reference to Moore?s own work, as well as Al Franken?s deathless tome on Limbaugh. I?ll say this for the Moore book: it?s brisk and deft, and avoids screedy polemics for one-on-one factual refutations of what the authors identify as Moore?s more egregious fictitions.He also says, "full review on Monday," which I'll be looking forward to. |
