I understand that Ritter received $400K from Iraq to make a movie about the weapons inspections.
This might explain it, if true.

I've heard that all day, and am looking into it ...

According to Ritter on Fox last night with O'Reilly, the film cost $400,000. Ritter paid himself 20%, then infused approximately $30,000 of that back into the film. The film was still over budget, so Ritter still owes on the film.

His reason for making the film was that there had to be one totally objective film on Iraq.

Still doesn't explain the flip-flop, but I think the media is giving this guy way too much gravitas. But, then again, they are desperate for ratings... and Ritter is probably good for that.

Plus, to Ritter, the publicity is good. If, he thinks (my opinion only) he can be the savior of the world, then I guess publicity is necessary.
