Michael Moore denied entry into the NYSE

It seems the money-men don’t want Moore anywhere near them at the NYSE. Michael Moore went down to Wall Street to ask people to divest from health insurance companies and guess what happened? He couldn’t get in…CNBC’s Maria Bartiromo looks pretty flustered when Moore asks her if any other guest had ever been denied access with her before?Agreed. I think the title is sensational and misleading. While it's possible Moore was denied entry, it seems much more likely that the scheduling issues mentioned were the cause, which is MSNBC's fault. I've never tried to visit the exchange myself, but it doesn't seem like the sort of place you just walk into. On the other hand, you'd think MSNBC would have some sort of prearranged interview space for guests like Moore.Regardless, the substance of the interview is what really counts. I love that Moore is finally talking about the weaknesses of the program, and practical issues, like the role of pharmaceutical companies under a universal system. His argument really is airtight, from a moral standpoint, even if there's plenty of room to quibble over the intricacies.
