Multimillionaire Moore Denies He's in the Top 1%



Documentary filmmaker and multimillionaire Michael Moore squirms in the interview above as he refuses to admit he's in the top 1% (transcript available here), which seems highly unlikely because it would only take $344,000 of income in 2009 to be in the top 1%, and Moore's net worth is estimated be $50 million.  

Total box office revenues from Moore's movies come to about 1/3 of a billion dollars ($342 million), and "Fahrenheit 911" by itself grossed $222 million on a production budget of only $6 million.  He also repeatedly claims that "capitalism did nothing for me."
