Speaking of inaccuracies... Forbes had a list of things that were inaccurate in the movie Bowling for Columbine. I thought that was interesting.

That's because Michael Moore learns everything he knows about government in the same place Babs Striesand learns about the environment...Democratic fund-raising letters.

By the way, speaking of
Bowling for Columbine, there is a passage in Cramer's article that could just as well have been written to describe the serious flaws in Moore's so-called "documentary:"
...[Bellesiles] helped to create the Violence Studies Program at Emory Universitya program that the Henry Frank Guggenheim Foundation criticized because its readings were, "too subjective, full of unexamined assumptions and strikingly unrepresentative of most of these crimes. These choices seem calculated to heighten the emotionalism with which students approach these issues, which can get in the way of rational understanding."
