Michael
Moore Wins Stupid Person of the Year Award
(March 25, 2003 - nonewswire.com)
Outspoken political documentary pundit Michael Moore has
been named “Stupid Person of the Year” by Time Magazine.
Moore seemed ecstatic at receiving the award, believing that
the title was really an honorary one.
"Time
Magazine is using a double negative, which really means it
is a positive," said Moore. "You
see, the word ‘stupid’ is a negative and the name ‘Michael
Moore’ is a negative, therefore they cancel each other out.
So I see that this is really an Intelligent Person of the
Year award. After all, only a stupid person wouldn’t understand
what I just said."
Time Magazine staff voted 8-1 in favor
of him getting the stupidity honors.
"The vote is misleading," says Moore. "You
see when one person felt I was stupid the others yelled
stupid at the person saying I was stupid, therefore the vote
was misinterpreted. This type of stuff goes on all the time.
I hear people yelling ‘stupid’ wherever I go."
Moore’s next documentary project is "A
Year in the Life of a Stupid Person" in which cameras
follow him around as he proudly flaunts the "Stupid
Person of the Year" Time Magazine cover featuring him.
The
one person that didn’t vote Michael Moore for stupidity honors
voted instead for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences
organization for thinking his work was worthy of merit.

Non-Satire
Followup: In interviews Michael Moore conducted
after his tirade at the Academy Awards, he continued to
stick by his theory that the booing of him
was from people booing the booers and not everyone booing
him. Perhaps he missed Monday, March 24's Tonight Show.
When Jay Leno mentioned Moore's name, the audience strongly
booed him without any
applause. When Jay Leno
did
a spoof
of Moore's house being blown up, the audience erupted
in cheers. Michael Moore has aliented himself from the
mainstream American public with his anti-American remarks
and actions. He has no one to blame but himself. Note
to Mr. Moore -
when people are trying to shut up those who boo, they usually
do it by yelling "Shut Up" or "Let Him Speak" and
not by joining in the booing.
