Michael Moore's "Sicko" - banned in Cuba for exaggerating healthcare quality.

[Lief 🗽]

So, apparently the State Department cable saying that Sicko was banned in Cuba was a lie. Good job, Gruniad (and, to be fair, plenty of other "news" sources): http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-moore/viva-wikileaks-sicko-was_b_798586.html

Thanks for the update Lief.  

But I have heard friends from France complaining that Moore got stuff about their health care system wrong too.  People wishing to learn about health care systems in other countries are better advised to watch T.R. Reid's PBS special, or better yet, read his book, than watch Moore's film.

T.R. Reid's book is terrific and highly recommended to anyone who wants to learn more about healthcare policy. It's also a fairly easy and quick read.
