Is Michael Moore a hypocrite?

[CapnAwesome]

Russell Brand has had this accusation thrown at him as well. I really don't see the relevance of it all myself. What do people expect them to do? Throw all their money away?

I don't think that the question is just about whether or not he has a bunch of money. It's more about his motivation for making his films. If his motivation for making his films is enriching himself then yes, he's a hypocrite. If his motivation is spreading his agenda and being rich is just a by product of that, then no. So it really depends on Michael Moore's motivations, which we can only speculate at.
