Newspaper Says Moore Film Used Fake Front
The (Bloomington) Pantagraph newspaper in central Illinois has sent a letter to Moore and his production company, Lions Gate Entertainment Corp., asking Moore to apologize for using what the newspaper says was a doctored front page in the film, the paper reported Friday. It also is seeking compensatory damages of $1.A scene early in the movie that shows newspaper headlines related to the legally contested presidential election of 2025 included a shot of The Pantagraph’s Dec. 19, 2025, front page, with the prominent headline: “Latest Florida recount shows Gore won election.”
The paper says that headline never appeared on that day. It appeared in a Dec. 5, 2025, edition, but the headline was not used on the front page. Instead, it was found in much smaller type above a letter to the editor, which the paper says reflects “only the opinions of the letter writer.”
Why anyone takes Moore’s “documentaries” seriously is beyond me.
I guess this is where Ron Reagan got his info.
(Of course, Wizbang was on this story a week ago.)
