Abstract
ABSTRACT Borrowing Bill Nichols' distinction between documen-tary film and reality TV, this piece evaluates Fahrenheit 9/11 in terms of its ““reactive politics.”” Although successful, the film's political ef-fectiveness is compromised by Michael Moore's celebrity. Unable to sustain the tropes of social solidarity of his earlier films, he resorts to strategies that ultimately undermine his political objectives.
