Filmmaker Michael Moore appeared for an interview on the June 12th episode of ABC's Good Morning America to defend the premise and arguments made in his latest film, Sicko, which documents the state of America's health care system.

In the interview, Moore asserts that the health care in America is a system that "essentially is run by greed." Moore also went on to defend his tactics in the film, including taking ailing 9/11 workers to Guantanamo Bay and Cuba for treatment.

"I'm using satire to make a larger point politically and socially," said Moore. "And you want to call that a stunt, it's certainly no different than what you would do on 'Good Morning America' on any given day except you wouldn't actually confront the government in the way I would do it."
