| 39. I do wish Moore would tone down some of his Hyperbole at times |
|
It gives people like these shit to point out. I think he does it because it gives his works the visceral impact that say, the Kerry campaign, lacked (not a slam on Kerry, he would have been eaten alive if he used Moore's tactics). Moore's ascertains are still correct, and rarely does he exaggerate anything crucial to his point, but it's still kind of a sad reflection of society that Moore must sensationalize certain things to get people to pay attention to the truth.
