Isn't the New York Post liberal? Correct me if I am wrong.

The NY Post is owned by the same guy who owns Fox News - plus it's just a rag like the Enquirer. Nobody reads it for anything but the gossip. You are corrected.

I thought the times was liberal... post was not...
I don't know for sure?
but, that's nothing more than a political opinion piece that all he does is call Moore wrong at every turn, yet cite no reason other than "you're stupid" if you don't think he's wrong too?
it's like an argument by an eighth grader? I mean, if you think it's wrong... OK... but cite some facts...
he never once thinks that maybe Moore is right and what he thinks is "right" (which he doesn't seem to be able to cite) is wrong...
I thought that was in part the whole point of the Moore movie... to say that the "social medicine propaganda" is wrong and he's going to show you on video...
talk about missing the point...hahaha

The New York Times and the Washington Post are well respected, award winning newspapers (and therefore called liberal)
The New York Post and the Washington Times are right-wing papers that were created to oppose them.

The New York Post tends to have a more conservative slant, although it is largely humor and satire. Additionally, I would venture to say that "Sicko" may not be that great of a movie. I'm probably going to see it this weekend, just for the heck of it. I'll let you know what I think...

I thought the New York Post was a little more conservative or at least moderate. The New York Times would give hell an A rating.

Whoa! How did they let that article slip by. Is it possible moore went so far left even the NY Post couldn't take it? I have seen a few moore films and he often exaggerates and twists what he says. Which is why Fahrenheit 9/11 wasn't able to be eligible for an oscar in non-fiction or documentary.

The New York Post is owned by Rupert Murdoch.
Fox News is also owned by Rupert Murdoch.
They're mirror images of each other. If Fox News releases venom towards Moore, why wouldn't the other?

It's hard for people that have plenty of money to understand, or even think about what it must be like to have little or nothing, much less imagine what it would be like to get sick and not be able to afford good care, so when it is presented and exposed for public viewing all they can do is become critics or deny that it even happens or is one-sided, completely glossing over the whole point.

The New York Post is a right-leaning newspaper, to the same degree that the New York Times leans to the left. Yes Virginia, there is a conservative media. And they have a conservative bias!! Horrors!!

Kyle Smith is an idiot. Not all writers at the NY Post are liberal. There is no such thing as liberal media. BTW, all the people I talked to said it was a great movie and they liked it better than Columbine.
