Texas Grand Jury indicted Netflix for knowingly promoting material in the film Cuties which depicts the lewd exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of a clothed or partially clothed child who was younger than 18 years of age.
Netflix indicted in Texas Court for Lewd Exhibition of Children in Cuties Film
On October 6, 2020, in Tyler County, Texas a Grand Jury indicted Netflix for knowingly promoting material in the film Cuties which depicts the lewd exhibition of the genitals or pubic area of a clothed or partially clothed child who was younger than 18 years of age at the time the visual material was created, which appeals to the prurient interest in sex, and has no serious literary, artistic, political, or scientific value.
Representative Matt Schaefer posted the indictment on his Facebook page this afternoon, and on twitter.

Yeah, no.
Hollywood already has come out in her defense. The film is disgusting and should be banned here in the US - just pointing out that it was (unfortunately) legal where it was made and that the crew is not US citizens and are not in the US to charge with crimes. Otherwise, any time a US video involving guns is screened in France, France could charge US citizens with crimes against French law.
This movie is a disgusting foreign product that Netflix decided it was a good idea to ‘import’ as one of their offerings. Netflix (and their execs specifically) are the ones responsible for this debacle with regards to US law.
A number of lawyers have opined that the movie is actual black-letter-law child porn, FYI.
It’s worse than that for the corporation - because you can’t put a corporation in jail, it can either be made to pay fines... or be dissolved with the assets liquidated. There is a corporate death penalty.
I’m not sure if Netflix can be indicted, but I’m glad that it is happening.
Woodville, (pop 2586) is the home of U.S. Congressman Brian Babin. Don't know if he had anything to do with the indictment.
God Bless Texas
“Zero, Moochelle, and the former Royalty from England, isnt it?”
Susan Rice on the board.
Obamas got multi millions.

This issue was the final straw for me, as I cancelled Netflix a few weeks ago. Netflix may as well be part of the DNC.
Indict the board at Netflix
It’s be nice to see their executives in orange jumpsuits.
And the company destroyed.
Supposed to be “It’d be”
"Billionaire mogul Haim Saban threw open his arms as he arrived to meet first lady Michelle Obama at the Beverly Hills home of Netflix chief content officer Ted Sarandos and his wife of 2½ years, Nicole Avant, the newly returned U.S. ambassador to the Bahamas. 'I'm here!' Saban announced to all within earshot of the no-press-allowed crowd of 135 -- a who's who of Hollywood political power players, including Jeffrey Katzenberg, Steve Bing, Harvey Weinstein and Mike and Irena Medavoy; Sarandos' boss, Netflix CEO Reed Hastings; and Quincy Jones, Avant's godfather."
Apart from Weinstein being present, of interest is Quincy Jones's alleged history with various celebrities--Michael Jackson, Will Smith, Tupac, Tevin Campbell. . . There is some overlap here with Scientology and other cults (For example: Jones was an avid reader. With the encouragement of Neil Friel, a hipster bebop trumpeter from Tacoma, he discovered L. Ron Hubbards Dianetics, Wilhelm Reichs eccentric psychological/sexual theories, Baird Spaldings The Life and Teachings of Masters of the Far East.: Garfields glittering star, Quincy Jones dared to dream Peggy was married to music mogul Quincy Jones and is the mother of "Parks and Recreation" star Rashida Jones. Lipton once dated Elvis Presley but they reportedly broke up when she tried to get him to join the Church of Scientology. . .: The Ex Mrs. Quincy Jones). Also, Katzenberg had this to say with respect to Weinstein: "'Make no mistake about it: He is a monster,' Katzenberg said. However, Weinstein had not been a lone actor, but had instead been protected by other men around him. 'There is a pack of wolves.'" Jeffrey Katzenberg: Harvey Weinstein Is a Monster, but Didnt Act Alone
Those last couple of lines. It must be Weinstein that the Eagle’s wrote “King of Hollywood” about.
I had that album (on cassette) for the song “I can’t tell you why”. Now it (King of Hollywood) all makes sense.

That song sounds like Harry Cohn, too.
Don’t know that name. Must be like Harvey.
Beautiful Joan Leslie was dissatisfied with the roles offered to her by the studio.
She sought more serious and mature roles. Her decision was also based on moral and religious grounds.
In 1947, the Catholic Theater Guild gave Leslie an award because of her "consistent refusal to use her talents and art in film productions of objectionable character."
As a result of this, powerful movie mogul Jack Warner used his influence to blacklist Leslie her from other major Hollywood studios
