Ruh Roh! Did little stevie forget to insert enough quotas of minorities in his story line? Is a re-write needed? He of all things liberal and Trump hater slipped. Then again, back in the day when I didn't care about politics very much I read a lot of his stuff. Thinking back, the race/gender or whatever didn't seem relevant at the time but I do believe there were few AAs in his stories. I could be wrong. Again. ;-) Get it together steve lest you be called out as a nazi.

Well, he does base a lot of his stories in rural Maine.

LOL. So the SJWs are attacking King now. It couldn’t happen to a nicer liberal a-hole.

Professor?
Scholar?
They keep using those words.
I do not think the words mean what they think they mean.
Why, oh why, would anyone throw their money into the sewer takng courses from the clowns pretending to be academics?
To: pgkdan
AND dangerous. Scarier than “IT”.

Comedy routine with the prof/scholar designations? Kind of like a PhD board. Who says the board members are correct? In a lot of cases, it appears they are totally wrong. I’ve known a bunch of PhDs that are nearly as dumb as mad maxine.

...
an adaptation of the 1986 horror novel of the same title by Stephen King...An adaptation...means it's not true to the original story, doesn't it? The book was good; the first film was pretty close. I wonder what changes they're making this time around?

According to liberal “thinking,” fiction must reflect the socialist/marxist/fascist/totalitarian society that liberals are trying to impose on us.

Hansen argues that his “white male underdog characters” achieve their heroic qualities “at least in part through the marginalisation of female characters, black characters, gay characters and characters with disabilities.”
You know the truly sad and pathetic part of this? Not that this moron said it, but that someone pays her to say it!
