Like I said, a work of fiction. The Washington Post and Miami Herald did their own separate investigations and concluded that Bush won. Since both papers tend to support Democrats, their conclusion was contrary to their interests, which makes it (their shared conclusion) even more credible. On the other hand, Recount was written by Left wing hack Danny Strong for the Left wing cable network HBO, so it has ZERO cred. Films are inherently biased and can create their own reality. If you think Recount is unbiased and objective, please let me when you'll be buying my beachfront property in Arizona.
