"Trampling The Boundary Between Documentary And Demogoguery"

"Mr. Moore is often impolite, rarely subtle and occasionally unwise. He can be obnoxious, tendentious and maddeningly self-contradictory. He can drive even his most ardent admirers crazy. He is a credit to the republic."

After giving itself artisic license by subtly confesses the movie's dishonesty, the Times writes a rather flattering review of Michael Moore's "Fahrenheit 9/11," concentrating largely on Moore's talent for lying artistically.

In other words, the Times admire Moore for being this country's Leni Riefenstahl.
