JON VOIGHT - VOIGHT BLASTS MOORE OSCAR SPEECH

Veteran Hollywood star JON VOIGHT has blasted documentary maker MICHAEL MOORE for making an anti-war speech during the OSCARS ceremony (23MAR03).

The actor, who played a Vietnam veteran in COMING HOME, took offence at Moore when he lambasted PRESIDENT GEORGE W BUSH as 'a fictional president' and claimed that America was 'against the war' in Iraq.

Voight says, "I didn't like it very much. Michael Moore looks for trouble and exposes it, and he thinks that's the whole story. I don't agree with him.

"I was thinking of the guys overseas. I was hoping all was going well."
