Michael Moore Mocks Indian Anchor’s Name During On-Air Tirade Against CNN

Filmmaker Michael Moore went off on CNN anchor Wolf Blitzer during an interview Monday to promote his latest documentary 'Sicko'. Moore blasted the anchor and the network for not doing enough to stop the Iraq war and for doing a 'crap' report on his new film. Moore also mocked the pronunciation of chief medical correspondent, Dr. Sanjay Gupta.

[AD from SpringBay]

At least Moore didn’t call anyone a nappy headed ho faggot. THAT would have been bad.

I would like to ask Michael ———Who is your healthcare provider???? And is it FREE????

[mhking]

I watched it — Moore is out of his damn fool mind. And unbeliveably, Wolf sat there and took it. I kept trying to figure out why the producers over there didn’t pull the plug.

With the money he spent making his BS movie, MM could purchased health insurance for thousands of uninsured people.

[Goldie Lurks]

Transformers and rats are kicking his bum at the box office.

Moore should seek medical assistance for his anxiety in Cuba.

[kempo]

I wonder why Moore don’t move to Canada so he can get FREE Health care? Probably because his taxes would take about 70% of his income to pay for the FREE Health care everyone gets there.

[no dems]

Yeah, and this will probably get no coverage except here on Free Republic.

[Trailerpark Badass]

Does he think networks and anchors are elected officials?

Obviously he thinks they should manipulate and distort the news to influence public policy.

No secret there, that's what the liberals in the news think is their calling.

[Trailerpark Badass]

However, I don’t think that a bad imitation of a foreign language is very high on the the racism scale.

It's really not, unless a conservative does it.

[Trailerpark Badass]

What a testament to the decline of the public education system in America. A misanthrope like Moore can make films which can find an audience, and puff pastry like Wolfey Blitzer can have his own television show.

Also a testament to the enormous opportunity here if useless halfwits can become famous and rich.

[no dems]

Wow!!! I had to watch the whole stinking, sickening interview and wait until the last 20 seconds to hear his “mockery” of Dr. Sanjay Gupta’s name.

I can’t stand Michael Moore; but, trying to make something out of this is a stretch. I think his emphasis, when saying the name, was more of a slam at the Doctor, than his name.
This wasted my time.

[The View From The Right]

To call Michael Moore an idiotic, pompous, arrogant, condescending, elisit, liberal blowhard is to insult all of the idiotic, pompous, arrogant, condescending, elisit, liberal blowhards out there.

He is an absolute pig of a person, not just because of his physique, but because his ideas are the worst blabber of Socialist crap.

[edsheppa]

I didn't hear anything that I'd call "mocking" of a name.

It's near the end where he says the name in an exaggerated tone. But it's not clear he's being disdainful of Gupta's ethnic heritage or just the Dr. himself.

[Berosus]

For the past couple of years I have called him Michael "Harkonnen" Moore. He looks so much like the chief villain of the novel "Dune" that they must be in the same family tree some how.

[Corin Stormhands]

It would ignite a firestorm if a conservative had done it.

I can agree with you there.

[RDTF]

“This wasted my time.”

Sorry to waste your time. Most here thought seeing Michael Moore go nuts was worth it.

[8mmMauser]

>>Yeah, and this will probably get no coverage except here on Free Republic.

Laura Ingraham mentioned it this morning on her radio show.

[SunkenCiv]

:’D !!!
