Not to bring the PT here... but I think you are really off-target.

I, for one, can say that when an actress such as Meryl Streep makes a complete arse of herself by putting herself front and center of politics, anything she is a part of will be viewed as liberal propaganda. I don't care if she plays Nancy Reagan in the most fair and accurate depiction of the Reagan years ever -- it will be viewed as having been made with a liberal slant on it.

She obviously has no interest in taking my money and I no longer have any interest in giving it to her.

i understand that sentiment, but still disagree with it ... i don't have a problem with her liberal stances - she's hollywood and they're overwhelming liberal ... i think the movie's sentiment is that we need a courageous media ... whether that's what we have in your opinion is irrelevant - we still need one ...

she's got her double standards, same as everyone, including you and me ... anyone who applauded polanski's oscar has zero credibility regarding their statements about sexual harassment ...

and the pt stands - have you seen it?

Your making his point that people will view it as liberal before even seeing it. I’m really not understanding your argument here. You’re admitting that something could be very non liberal but people will view it that way without seeing it because a certain actress or something is in it, and that’s basically what the other poster said
