Over at the extreme, left-wing film site MovieLine (check out the photo of Palin they chose) they’re reporting this:
In Friday’s casting breakdowns, Glee producers submitted a posting for two roles that need to be cast immediately. The first is for a character named Tammy Jean, a middle-aged “recent Tea Party candidate and home schooler — a Sarah Palin type.” It is unclear when the season two episode will air but it will begin shooting Tuesday.A conservative storyline would not be a surprise for Glee fans as Ryan Murphy has previously discussed adding a right-wing character to the McKinley High mix.
“We’ve taken a couple jabs at the right wing this year,” Murphy told TV Guide last June. “So what I want to do with this character is have someone who Christian kids and parents can recognize and say, ‘Oh, look — I’m represented there, too!’ If we’re trying to form a world of inclusiveness, we’ve got to include that point of view as well.”
“Pat me on the back,” Ryan Murphy says, “after two seasons, we’re not going to be bigots anymore!”
Wonderful, Ryan. You’ve taken the first step. The next step will be to hire someone for the writing room who actually understands and respects “Tea Party, home schooling, Sarah Palin types.”
Or, what some of those in your profession call a Nazi.
