It certainly is a great article, and right on the money too!!! Fact is: if you are an entertainer and want to attract the largest audience, plain common sense dictates that you do not air your political, etc. laundry in public. You keep it private, at best. Of course, most of the "Hollywood" clan are short of smarts to begin with, and live in a bubble of life unreal. I do not blame the actors and actresses for their rants. They are just plain stupid and fools to their core. However, the management that watches the bottom line should know better. You Hollywood folks have succeeded in ticking off a large number of movie attendees and that will not soon change. Only you can correct the problem, and I suggest you get to working on it real soon. You can begin by facing reality. The majority of Americans do not think or believe the way you and MoveOn.org feel. Libealism is dying a slow death, and you are dying along with a failed and passe' political philosophy!!! End of story!!!
Lindsay Lohan did exactly that about a year ago: she refused to discuss politics, saying half her audience was Republican.
I finally saw "Hidalgo", a movie I wanted to see for the past two years, by checking it out free from the library. No royalties to Hollywood that way.
