Whereas he did not identify the underlying details, Michael Moore did identify the overall attitude and symptoms that would finally result in a GM bankruptcy. The documentary was called Roger and Me. It showed consequences of those major and ignored problems. Including the ridiculous solutions implemented to accomplish nothing.

Sometimes serious problems take that long to be corrected by bankruptcy. Eastman Kodak is an ongoing example of how long problems can be ignored until even the spread sheets finally identify it. Moore had accurately identified or discussed many serious problems. Some of those problems would rather be ignored by many as non- problems or someone else's problem.
