A lot of people within MSM is/are liberal-leaning. Journalism has moved left, while economist have moved right.
The media has in most part been invested in certain beliefs and agendas. You'll find this by reading yahoo news and the spun titles they put up...mostly be AP and Reuter. Moore's weakness are in math, and unfortunately the 'right' is just not up to par when explaining their arguement against him.
It's incredibly easy to understand the arguement against him, but the population would rather listen to 'Live Earth' or 'Sicko' to get the quick answers...rather than the smart ones.

Considering that Moore hasn't finished his press campaign yet, and the movie is still in theaters competing against robots, rats and a cop who won't die, how can you declare it a failure in any way?
The real problem is that enough Americans aren't pissed off enough yet to demand real change from their medical services to do anything yet.
I hope those who are critical of Moore's criticism of insurance companies and medical corporations wind up in their greedy hands soon! Then we'll see the song they'll sing change fast.

Three possible reasons.
One, because his point was to make the movie. He did that, so by his definition, it wasn't a failure.
Two, drawing further attention to it by criticizing it just draws further attention to it, which is all Moore wanted to accomplish.
Three, people are too apathetic to care, even when they are presented with facts that have been commonly known in the health care industry for decades. Regardless of the slant or Moore's agenda.

What failure are you referring to?
That it didn't beat out Transformers at the box office?
If so, are you joking?!?!?!

Because they wanted it to be successful. He is a complete liberal jerk and the media loves jerks like him to succeed. Fahrenheit was not a documentary it was his twisted opinion .
