Al Sharpton Manages To Link White Oscar Nominees To Ferguson Protests
Western Journalism ^ | JANUARY 16, 2015 | B. CHRISTOPHER AGEE

“In the time of Staten Island and Ferguson,” Sharpton said, “to have one of the most shutout Oscar nights in recent memory is something that is incongruous.

This is why “Selma” will win Best Picture.

Especially given the current race-baiting, there’s no way Hollywood will miss the chance to have a stage full of leftists at the end of the show yelling “Hands Up, Don’t Shoot”.

Being nominated for Best Picture is most movie makers’ dream.

Some people are NEVER happy.

Funny how the movie throws LBJ under the bus to put him in the role of antagonist to King. I suppose, if it’s even mentioned, however, that it’s the Democrats in the movie’s alternate universe that are pushing the Civil Rights act over the objections of Republicans.

The media could link Krakatoa to Ferguson and get away with it. There are a lot of dopes out there..

He also managed to link Tawana Brawley to a real crime.

Nothing new here. Once a charlatan, always a charlatan.

Hey Al, ya’ gotta’ make decent movies before ya’ get the rewards. Kinda’ the way everything in life works, ya’ know?

Of course such common sense is completely lost on an idiot bigot like Sharpton.

Is this “Oscar” squabble yet another fissure appearing in the formerly monolithic left; i.e.liberal Hollywood and the black.
