CBS AND ‘THE PEOPLE’

October 27, 2004

It started out as a slow simmer and has finally reached the boiling point. I’m talking about the CBS film on Ronald Reagan; otherwise known as the liberal fictionalized view of the popular ex-President.

Those that have seen the script say that it is the one of the most blatant ‘hatchet-jobs’ on a politician they’ve seen- let alone a living, loved ex-President. He curses, he blasts sinners, and Nancy is worse. Nancy runs the White House, is on drugs, seeks counsel from voodoo new-agers, and slaps her daughter across the face.

In other words, the liberal producers decided to re-write history. It’s nothing new. On the other side of the coin, when producers DON’T re-write history, to accomodate the enlightened thinkers of the day, they catch hell. Ask Mel Gibson. He’s producing an honest film and the world, particularly the church, can’t handle it.

The advertisers are going to pay a big price for sponsoring the film and I’m afraid CBS is going to find out that the ‘will’ of the people is stronger than they thought. Maybe David Hume had it right after all.
