Jack Johnson is one of my heroes.Considering the time period it took a lot of ba**s to walk down the street with a white woman.And kick the s*** out of the moron who got in his face.He would dare whole crowds to try him. I'm sure Burns will ruin it.

Don't forget.
He was also the only black Heavyweight champ before Joe Louis won the title and defended it with an unblemished record-with the exception of a singular defeat to Max Schmelling-until his first retirement from the "sweet science."
Yup.
Burns'll blow this one.
Big-time!

New thought.
We submit the name of Michael "Munch" for next year's annual "Nathan's, Coney Island Hot Dog-Eating Contest."

That's an interesting point.
Something like the hot dog eating contest, i.e. an event that actually requires intensive training, focus and determination, would probably be beyond the reach of someone like Michael Moore.
Though, if the two ever had a sit-off, I think that Kobayashi would be in deep s***!

"Of course he's entitled to express his opinion --that's what this country is all about," says Burns
The film would be less treasonous if it were just presented as "opinion"... but it's presented as a "documentary" and ignorant voters are buying the lies as outright fact.

The Ken Burns method of film making:
1. Film a photograph
2. Have someone talk over it
3. Film a landscape
4. Use the same music over and over and over again.
5. Print and show on PBS

Burns concedes that Moore has an agenda, but so what? "Whatever your argument about his methodology, this is a man with a deep, abiding sympathy for the working man," he says. Michael Moore is a man with a deep abiding sympathy for Michael Moore, and no one else as far as I've been able to determine.

I wish the media would stop calling Fahrenheit 911 a documentary. It's anything BUT a documentary.Quite right, however it fits the definition of PROPAGANDA just perfectly!

Burns: " "Whatever your argument about his methodology, this is a man with a deep, abiding sympathy for the working man," Yeah, until he visits a European country and calls those same Americans the "most stupid people on earth".

Who cares about Ken Burn's opinion is? This is the guy who manufactures history according to the acceptable version of truth funded by Foundations that support PBS! Burn's cut and paste TV docudrama history is nothing more or less than the historical fiction Hollywood manufactures.

...sit-off...That, or an intense session of repetitive butt-scratching or first person mirror-ranting.

All competitive sports where Moore comes from, i.e. Hollywood.

Damn...I'm going to be sad throwing out my Civil War tapes. Oh well, buh bye. Ken Burns, you have been voted onto left wing island.
