UPDATED: Michael Moore: The Revolution Won’t Be Monetized?

Michael Moore in 2009: “Capitalism is…about protecting the wealthy and legalizing greed.”

Michael Moore today: “Filmmaker Michael Moore has sued Harvey and Bob Weinstein accusing the brothers of [having] cheated him out of at least $2.7 million in profits from the hit documentary Fahrenheit 9/11“.

Michael Moore has personally profited from Farenheit 9/11 to the tune of at least $21 million (as of 2005).  I guess it’s ok to use the law to protect one’s own right to wealth…if you are Michael Moore, that is…

UPDATE: “He redefines the term ‘greedy’”, says the Weinstein’s attorney.  Of course he would say that.  But he has a point.
