Moore - "the truce has been signed"

Michael Moore, who has just released his latest documentary 'Sicko' in America, has settled his recent argument with CNN.

In reports on the film, the US news network accused Moore of fudging the facts and cherry-picking numbers from different academic studies to make his arguments stronger.

Over the weekend the director vowed to become CNN's "worst nightmare".

The station has since admitted to making two mistakes in the reports and confirmed that the statistics in 'Sicko' were the correct numbers from the sources cited.

Following CNN's statement, Moore said that he is willing to move on.

In a statement on his website he said, "the truce has been signed, the peace pipe has been smoked. And the public is left with a much more cautious and wary eye when it comes to CNN."
