CNN - Michael Moore Flap

I just read that yesterday, CNN's mild-mannered, often cheerleading Bill Hemmer (not a good journalist, not even a good thick-necked pretty boy) said to Michael Moore of "Fahrenheit 911" fame in an interview, "Some people would like to see you in the White House and others would like to see you dead."

Moore supposedly got upset with that, and I think he had a right to be so. That's a Bill O'Reilly question placed on a morning news cast. It almost makes it sound like it's OK to take shots (real ones) at the man just because some nutcases are mad.

But then, some CNN operative went to Moore and demanded he give back his CNN floor pass. CNN says that Moore refused and began to curse the woman out. Moore says that NEVER happened. I've seen Moore somewhat confronted before, and I've certainly never seen him respond with gutter language.

Interestingly however, throughout all of this, CNN is the one demanding the apology from Moore. I guess they really, really, really want to become Fox News. Ick.
