Michael Moore, the self-proclaimed defender of the downtrodden returns once again in the second season of the humorous but real series The Awful Truth. Coming as a new DVD box set, “The Awful Truth” is coming this winter from New Video.

Michael Moore takes to the road again for a second season of “The Awful Truth, ” hailed by critics as the most daring show to hit the American public since Moore’s own critically acclaimed “TV Nation.” In the spirit of his award-winning documentary “Roger and Me,” Moore skewers politicians and the public alike as he places himself squarely in the middle of today’s most controversial issues and events. Join Moore for twelve new half hour episodes filled with scathingly funny observations and humorous rants that boldly and ironically provide valuable commentary on today’s cultural landscape.

“The Awful Truth: The Complete Second Season” will be presented in its original fullscreen and stereo. Four of the episodes will contain audio commentaries and the set will be complimented with a behind the scenes featurette, deleted footage from the segment “The Bookie”, and a Michael Moore biography.

The second season of the series will join its predecessor on January 29th, the set will carry a suggested retail price of $39.95.
