Eli Lilly and Halliburton in the Same Breath
I was in the middle of an interesting article on two documentary film-makers doing an exposé of Michael Moore, when I saw this sentence:
They were kicked out of Moore’s Traverse City (Mich.) Film Festival after questioning his nonprofit’s investments in defense contractor Halliburton and drug maker Eli Lilly.
Now, I understand that the main point is about Michael Moore’s hypocrisy, but I didn’t think I’d see the day where “Eli Lilly” and “Halliburton” were uttered in the same breath. I mean, as bad as drug companies can be, can one really compare them to a defense contractor?
