Sheesh!
Talk about hyper hypocrisy! Today on Morning Joe, Joe Scarborough slammed Quentin Taratino as a "pornographer of violence." Too bad Joe didn't have even a small fraction of such moral outrage yesterday when he and the Morning Joe crew allowed Robert Redford to ramble on and on promoting his new movie "The Company You Keep" which glorified Weathermen murderers.
Watch the video below the fold but the viewer will wonder at what point in Redford's long spiel that Scarborough or anyone else on his show challenges Redford on the fact that his movie gives sympathetic treatment to the murderers loosely based on the 1981 Brinks robbery by radicals who had previously been involved in Weathermen bombings. That robbery resulted in the murder of two police officers and a security guard. However, not a word of protest on Morning Joe about Redford being a "pornographer of violence" even those his movie gave a sympathetic portrayal of the killers.

Trying to put a positive spin on the Weather Underground’s activities is the work of a very sick group of people. I can’t see how this qualifies as entertainment.

She blowed up real well.
There is a movie based on Beatles music called Across the Universe. There is a scene where anarchists are building a bomb in the kitchen of a brownstone in the Village. They blow up and I laugh. When I found out one of them is supposed to be Bill Ayer’s old girlfriend I laugh even louder!
I was watching Oliver Stone on the BBC news this morning talking about how we need to promote more American history from the enemy’s perspective.
