Am I the only one who finds the irony in Michael Moore's attempt to shut down the video broadcasting of his newest movie Sicko on YouTube?

According to the WSJ, a "124-minute version of the film had been posted on YouTube by at least two users. It could be watched in 14 video clips. Each segment had received 500 to 600 views before it was removed."

The movie chronicles the struggles of ordinary Americans as they navigate the health care bureaucracy. He ends up accompanying a group of 9/11 rescue workers to Cuba where the film describes them as getting better care and cheaper drugs. So, cheaper and easier is better unless it cuts into Mr. Moore's profits?

Just for the record, I think that Michael Moore is entitled to protect his property. But they have to come up with a better PR spin than the one offered by sarah Rothman who said "from our research it is clear that people interested in the (health care) movement are excited to go to the theater so they can be part of the experience and fight to reform health care."

Sarah, baby, let's just say it like it is: profits are something better made in Hollywood than by insurance companies.
