Wow, Gupta's getting an earful from comments on his blog.

[tuvor]

I scanned the few comments posted by Michael Moore on his site.
("Dr. Gupta's Fans Turn on Him," http://www.michaelmoore.com/sicko/news/article.php?id=10025)

I considered that he might have been cherry-picking, but 124 comments so far, and I'm not seeing a lot of love myself:
("My conversation with Michael Moore," http://www.cnn.com/HEALTH/blogs/paging.dr.gupta/2007/07/my-conversation-with-michael-moore.html)

People are waikin' upta Gupta...or something.

1. You have to at least give CNN, Gupta, King, and even Blizter credit for allowing a free discourse

It has been years since the MSM actually allowed critical thinking to be presented

This would never happen with fox, and hasn't been occurring anywhere in the MSM for years

Maybe CNN will open their eyes, and see that people do not just want another fox propaganda network, but an actual network that invokes critical thinking, NOT propaganda

I suspect their ratings have also increased on this. Maybe they should also learn something from that, when they essentially disenfranchised most of the progressives and liberals, and shifted their coverage to corporate propaganda

It remains to be seen however

3. The biggest problem I have is with Kyra Phillips saying "If you can stomach it"

PHILLIPS: And in all fairness, of course, we want to let our own Dr. Sanjay Gupta respond to what Michael Moore had to say. You can catch part of -- the other part of that interview with Michael Moore ranting and raving in "THE SIT ROOM" coming up at 4:00 p.m. Eastern time.

PHILLIPS: And you can tune in to "THE SIT ROOM" at 4:00 Eastern for a little more unedited more interview, if you can stomach it.

11. no, I don't want to stomach it cause I know what you mean. When he was being interviewed by Blitzer

when they stopped for a break, Lou Dobbs made a wise ass crack how Michael Moore was worse than Hugo Chavez.

No question about it, CNN is not the same network it was when Turnner had it

It is quite sad

5. I made a post

around 3 today and it has not appeared. It was a respectful post too. I reserve judgement at what is getting through.

8. I was respectful in my comment as well.

I noticed that the most recent posts showing up are time marked after 5:00 this afternoon. They must have a HUGE backlog of comments awaiting moderation.

2. My god, those replies are windy and dull.

[tuvor]

4. I'm sure Gupta *wishes* they were only "windy and dull".

Maybe you read a different batch from me, but I saw a lot of respondents taking him to task for one thing or another.

[Swede]

6. Sanjay must be feeling the pressure.

You'll notice the folks disagreeing with Moore all had poor grammar and spelling.

[PA Democrat]

7. Good. I added a comment of my own.

[Snotcicles]

9. I saw Moore smack Carlson around a long time ago on crossfire, it was a thing of beauty nt

Gupta=who like Colon Powell took a big fall off Humpty Dumpty's wall last night, in front of millions of American citizens w/ poor or NO health care, in his attempt to bring down the 1 person trying to help us!!

I cannot look at his s-eating GRIN! Both Larry King and Guppy tried ignorantly to shout and slap MM down w/ misinformation/fudging of facts/ and snide, belittling comments--showing just how DARKSIDED they truly are.

Bravo Michael, for bringing the LIGHT to this subject of HEALTHCARE-- so shrouded in redtape and heartache for so many millions of children and adults and elders....

Love and Blessings Always....
