'Hollywood revives McCarthy-era "Committee for the First Amendment"'

Oct 9, 2025

Gee, it sure would've been nice if The New Yorker, et al. had put out stuff like that during COVID, the Twitter Files, various high-profile "cancellations", etc.

It's strange. I wonder why they didn't.

Oh, well. It's probably not that important, anyway.

The Rolling Stone article, for anyone who cares:

Billie Eilish, Gracie Abrams, Pedro Pascal, Spike Lee Team With Jane Fonda in Free Speech Fight

More than 550 of the world's biggest stars team to revive the McCarthy-era Committee for the First Amendment.

Selective outrage is selective.

I never watch Kimmel, because I don't think he's that funny, but his "construction phase of grief" joke right after his stupid MAGA statement was pretty amusing...
