When have they not been political? HBO and Benghazi movie.

[Guest 6.8 AR]

They're doing a movie about Benghazi. So what? HBO's politics is decidedly liberal, probably

due to who owns them. From that idiot comedian to several of their so-called sports announcers,

and their stance of many social issues, they make for a nice fit with the likes of the New York Times.

 

I imagine Benghazi will be shown to have been started by that video on Youtube. Shame on them.

Coming to a cable channel near you. Watch and become indoctrinated.

I'm just wondering when they weren't political? Anyone know?

They most likely have always been political, one way or t'other.

Ole prez wilson liked the propaganda slant of "birth of a nation". Hollywood focusing the propaganda effects of WW II movies. In the 1950's Joe McCarthy had washington meddling with hollywood big time.

In the 1960's lots of politics in movies. Dr Strangelove ferinstance.

I don't know on this one.  I will have to wait and see.  HBO did do a great job on the John Adams series.  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0472027/?ref_=fn_al_tt_1
