"Michael Moore is a Big Fat Stupid White Man", is a revealing look at how Michael Moore uses half-truths, truisms, plays with figures, re-edits/renacts, and the like, to convey his "truth". It has, as it believes viable truth, that Moore is a Narcissist, and does what he does to feel superior to the average american family.

The book drags in the last half of the book, by not really introducing any more information, and by just going over the same information again and again, with slightly show more different perspectives. It has a slight right-wing bias, but not as much as I thought it would coming into this book. Hardy & Clark dont try to push their views on you, but just try to show you that you can't always trust what you read and see, and that films and books, can be doctored to make them "less true", and to pull on your emotional heartstrings.

All in all, a good book, and one that will make you want to go back over Michael Moore's work with more of an eye, and research a few things he says. It might also make you look at any other political book you read in another light.

Basically a book-length attack on Michael Moore for his filmic fabrications and personal hypocrisies. How much you'll like it probably depends on how much you think Moore is a big fat suckweasel.
Pretty decent book, written in an easy-to-read way and exposes a lot of truths about Michael Moore. Although it does read as a bit bias at some points, they back up all their information very well.
Leve fisking de los argumentos de Moore en sus películas. Es aburrido ver cómo se tiran los trastos unos a otros, sin que Moore me parezca serio ni honrado. Aburrido.
