James Pinkerton over at TCS says...

Yes, Hollywood is encrusted with baroque liberalism. But underneath that precious lefty superstructure is a competitive and even conservative substrate.

Not too often I read arguements about a conservative hollywood. It's worth a read, but I don't think the underlying motive of profit moves hollywood any further right on the left side of the loony scale.

How about hollywood and religion? Check this one out..."Narrow focus draws 'PG' rating for Baptist-backed film"

Give me a break. The amount of crap that is fed youngsters these days...and we don't want anything "Christian" in movies without parental guidance suggested?
