Gravitymaster 0 #1 July 27, 2013 http://www.broadcastingcable.com/article/494742-TCA_NBC_Orders_Hillary_Clinton_Miniseries.php QuoteLos Angeles – NBC has ordered a four-hour miniseries based on the life of Hillary Rodham Clinton that will star Diane Lane, NBC entertainment chairman Bob Greenblatt announced at the TCA press tour Saturday. The project will be written and directed by Courtney Hunt and recount Clinton's life from her time living in the White House as First Lady (the role of Bill Clinton has not yet been cast) to her tenure as Secretary of State. Greenblatt said he didn’t think the project would be affected whether or not Clinton decides to run for President in 2016. Can someone explain to me again how the press and their Hollywood minions don't exert major influences on politics? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #4 July 27, 2013 But the conclusion you've drawn is silly. It's like saying Hollywood is in cahoots with the NRA because, well, let's face it, nobody blows up more shit and glamorizes guns more than Hollywood. But that's simply not true. The bottom line is . . . Hollywood is about the bottom line. I can absolutely guarantee you that if NBC didn't think a mini-series about Clinton would make them some money by getting people to tune into it, they they wouldn't fund it. While there are some notable loudmouth actors for the "left," there are just as many for the "right." However, the people who actually make money decisions, trust me when I tell you, they don't give a rats ass about anything other than money.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gravitymaster 0 #5 July 27, 2013 Yep, the movie release is designed to coincide with her new book, due out in 2014. Then money from both will be funneled into her campaign chest. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kallend 2,150 #11 July 29, 2013 NPR was reporting last week on the number of Republicans visiting, and giving speeches in, Iowa. Iowa caucuses coming first a coincidence? I think not.... The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In that case, perhaps their 1st Amendment protection needs to be redefined and reconsidered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
