Todd sends along this fun tidbit from the NYTimes:
Morgan Spurlock, who gorged himself on an all-McDonald's diet for a month to create his film "Super Size Me," received a standing ovation on Friday after a speech at Hatboro-Horsham High School's health fair. But not everyone was pleased with Mr. Spurlock's commentary at the school in a Philadelphia suburb, The Associated Press reported. Mr. Spurlock was said to have made fun of McDonald's employees' intelligence and referred to "retarded kids in the back wearing helmets." Superintendant William Lessa called the speech "inappropriate," but Mr. Spurlock defended himself, saying, "The greatest lesson those kids learned today was the importance of free speech." Mr. Spurlock was scheduled to make another speech later that night for community members, but it was canceled.
