No Love in Michigan

This just in from the AP:

DAVISON, Mich. - Oscar on the shelf or not, Michael Moore is not getting much respect at his old high school.

"Would you want him as a role model? Would you want your son or daughter to be like him?" asked Don Hammond, a member of the Hall of Fame selection committee. "I haven't talked to anybody yet who's for him. The word to describe Michael Moore is embarrassing. He embarrasses everybody."


SquirrleyMojo is still out w/the jury on Moore.
Great film maker, excellent editor/spin doctor, mildly provocative . . .

What does it take for the unpopular to EVER gain status at an old HS?
Is it his, ehem, "embodiment"? Academics can sometimes be rather snobbish about visual performance . . .
