Leni Riefenstahl
English-American journalist and literary critic Christopher Hitchens and Democratic politician Ed Koch contended that "Fahrenheit 9/11" contains distortions and untruths and is propaganda. Hitchens also compared Michael Moore to Leni Riefenstahl in his critique for "Slate" magazine, saying "Here we glimpse a possible fusion between the turgid routines of MoveOn.org and the filmic standards, if not exactly the filmic skills, of Sergei Eisenstein or Leni Riefenstahl." He later labeled Moore "a completely promiscuous opportunist [and] extremely callous person."
