Review of Expelled
Showing true liberal duplicity, Ebert refused to review the film Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed because of its expose of the atheist agenda in science and education. But even though he refused to review the film, he nonetheless posted a several page rant about the film on his blog[2] where he criticizes minor points involved in the production of the film, and then uses that to make it seem that he has also rebutted the main points of Ben Stein's argument. Conservatives and creationists were outraged that such a trusted movie critic would use his column as a pulpit to proclaim his own personal politics.[3]
