Over the past 15 years or so our side has done a truly fantastic job outing the mainstream media as the corrupt leftist propagandists they are. As a business model they’re nearly bankrupt and the stigma of dishonesty they’ve worked so hard to earn in their kamikaze missions for the Left has pretty much ended their national influence.
As bad as the MSM is though, the entertainment media is much, much worse. Just the other day someone asked me where they could find a left-wing film site. Without a hint of irony, I replied, “Any film site that’s not Big Hollywood.” If someone would simply enforce California’s laws against incest we could easily put this disgusting pile of unholy inbred love out of business. Unfortunately, that’s not going to happen. And maybe that’s good thing. Without them, where would we get our chuckles?
Today’s hilarity arrives courtesy of this L.A. Times Big Picture blog sporting the following headline and intro:
Jim Cameron eager to mix it up with ‘Avatar’s’ right-wing critics
You can always tell that the Academy has sent out its final Oscar ballots by the sudden reappearance of gaudy full-page Oscar ads in the trades, my paper and the New York Times. It also means that most nominees, fearful of making a horrible gaffe, are especially careful not to say anything that could possibly be viewed as controversial in their interviews with the showbiz press.
Except, of course, for Jim Cameron.
He’s on the cover of this week’s The Envelope and he’s clearly eager to mix it up with the multitudes of conservatives who’ve been trashing “Avatar,” claiming that it’s dumb, sanctimonious, anti-military, nuttily pro-environment[.] … Cameron isn’t the sort of guy to take those brickbats lying down, even if means alienating a few Oscar voters, either because they agree with the conservative take on the film or prefer to vote for films that are free of any political leanings.
Cameron’s being given all this glowing credit for being ballsy enough to risk alienating a “few” Oscar voters…
In the meantime, how many Leftie Oscar voters is Cameron hoping to impress by “mixing it up” with we right-wingers?
How about the other 5800, give or take.
When it comes to winning Oscars and impressing the Hollywood Frat Crowd, ripping into conservatives isn’t brave, it’s smart. Real smart. As a matter of fact, we should all bow down to the genius of James Cameron on this one. The director sure knows how to play the entertainment media. First, in the heat of the Oscar race he lands a high-profile puff piece courtesy of a sycophantic, unchallenging reporter … then he receives raves for the guts it took to stick his head into the stuffed lion’s mouth.
Journalistic incest. There’s no other way to describe it.
In other news, the L.A. Times claims there are a “few” Oscar voters who might not like the politics of “Avatar.”
Really? A few? That many? Roger Simon and Lionel Chetwynd are the only two I know of and “two” equals “a couple,” not a few.
Don’t make me saddle up Retracto.
