In USA it is different, you can say whatever you like, whenever you like, as long as it is true and walk around as a free man, guess that is why Moore is still a free man!
Although I saw somewhere something about him being arrested for travelling to Cuba or something, anyone know what that was about?

The Department of Treasury asked him to prove that he works for a news organization, 'cause they never cleared him to visit Cuba...

U.S. citizens are generally barred from traveling to the communist country unless approved by the government under a broad trade embargo imposed against Cuba since 1962.
The Treasury letter implies Moore did not have authorization, asks for more information and warns of possible civil or criminal penalties.
