Oscar for Inconvenient Truth was "recalled because of critical distortions". I have not heard this and the person who wrote the letter offers no proof (as usual) just was wondering if anyone else had any info. I checked snopes could fine nothing, but still looking. Thanks for any help.

2. total bullshit

That's the link to the official Nobel prize website and a list of who own the peace prize over the years. Look at 2007.


Edit:

After posting, I see I wrote about the Nobel when you asked about the Oscar.
Well, the Oscar site still lists An Inconvenient Truth as the winner. here's the link: http://awardsdatabase.oscars.org/ampas_awards/DisplayMain.jsp;jsessionid=E4FC0737FDD92C219B8A1D7551D2E363?curTime=1260420694912

Al didn't get the Oscar, the producer of the movie did.
