He ran for Governor of CA. and Hollywood opposed him.

Who is he?

He ran for Governor of California and Hollywood opposed him. No, he's not Arnold. In face he's not even a republican. And Hollywood loves him now.

But when this man ran for Governor Hollywood viciously attacked him, his policies, his beliefs. many actors appeared in ads denouncing his Ideas. Studios bought airtime to run ads attacking his policies.

He was a famous author who made the cover of time magazine.

You history buffs know who I'm talking about.

You got it.
It was Upton Sinclair.

I posted this on two other boards and nobody figured it out yet.
