Hey Bryn Mawr! What say you give me some money?
Eric H. from the Dave just pointed me to an article in the Bi-Co news that Michael Moore is coming to speak at Bryn Mawr. Moore approached Bryn Mawr for this venture, offering to speak for half of his $40,000 fee. ... [H]e felt it was important to speak in Pennsylvania, a swing state. I'm not opposed to Michael Moore speaking. In fact, I think it's a good thing, because the more he speaks the more people will realize how self-serving he is, not to mention how outlandish and radical his claims. The fact that he approached the school and offered to speak for $20,000 says it all. UPDATE: Eric H. at the Dave (as I should have suspected) has posted on the subject too. posted by Dennis on 09.21.04 at 12:15 PM |

I'm all for free speech, even by guys who think Iraqi beheaders like Zarqawi are the equivalent of Ethan Allen or Paul Revere.
But $20,000 is a might steep. Hardly what I'd call FREE.
