Michael Moore Interviewed Beheading Victim Nick Berg
Michael Moore Interviewed Beheading Victim Nick Berg

Written by: Joyce Faulkner

Michael Moore contacts family of Nick Berg to offer them copy of interview.

While making his new movie Fahrenheit 9/11, Michael Moore filmed a 20 minute interview with Nicolas Berg, the American contractor beheaded in Iraq. Although the clip does not appear in the finished movie, Mr. Moore’s office has confirmed its existence. In a statement released to the press, they said: "We are dealing privately with the family." Mr. Moore himself was not available for comment.

A spokesman for the Berg family said that Mr. Moore called to offer them a copy of the interview for approval before releasing it to the press. The contents of the film, when it was filmed and why it wasn’t used isn’t known.

Shown in a grisly video posted on a website on May 11, Mr. Berg’s decapitation shocked the world.
