Who is Michael Moore, really?
Citizen Moore, a biography of film-maker and gadfly Michael Moore penned by Roger Rapoport, includes a chapter entitled, “Who is Mike Westfall and Why is he saying these terrible things about me?” While Flint Michigan-native Moore has acquired a measure of success in doing cookie-cutter films, which has given him the luxury of becoming a matinee idol by ridiculing people and making fun of important issues, just what is the real story on him? What did Moore base his career on? Does he have any genuine credentials and, if so, what are they? Has he really been on the side of the common man?
What are his credentials to make him an expert on every issue from politics to health care to the financial bailout now going on? In Flint, was he really not much more then just a talking head, observer and opportunist who made a cheap movie and fooled the world? Did Moore actually build the foundation of his dubious career on Flint, Michigan, quicksand?
From the start with his hoax movie Roger & Me, where he pretended that General Motors’ CEO Roger Smith wouldn’t communicate with him, he spent the next twenty years asserting to the world that he was Flint’s lone Don Quixote and the unequivocal champion of the common worker. In Roger & Me, he miscast himself because he was not the one leading the Flint fight.

"As the National Journal's Ron Brownstein has been reporting, white America is increasingly alienated and distrustful of all our major economic and political power centers - the banks, big corporations, the government. And, for the first time in our lifetimes outside the South, white racial consciousness has visibly begun to rise."
