Meryl Streep slams Walt Disney as racist, anti-Semitic
CBS ^ | Jan 8 2014 | CBS

Posted on 01/08/2014 8:15:59 PM PST by WilliamIII

Meryl Streep had some choice words to say about Walt Disney during remarks she made Tuesday at an awards gala where she was honoring "Saving Mr. Banks" star Emma Thompson.

The "August: Osage County" star called out Disney as both sexist and anti-Semitic while presenting the best actress prize to Thompson at the National Board of Review awards in New York.

I will always regret that I watched that horrid hit piece.
I am in full agreement with you.
Worst casting job ever.
I knew ahead of time what to expect, and I wasn’t disappointed, just horrified and thoroughly disgusted.

I heard her in Dallas once after she was PM, she was great. Passionate, articulate, and relentless.

Sharp, deadly, should have given lessons to our current GOP on how to fight.

I had no idea the movie would do what it did, both LL and I were disgusted.

How fortunate that you saw her in person!
I knew the movie would be a “disappointment” because of Streep, and then came the disastrous script.

So what if Walt Disney was racist and anti-Semitic?

Is this an image of a Streep selfie?

Who knew that Streep was a Jew-hater?

Lemme see now - - - racist, Jew-hater, chick-flick - - - - ?

Is there ANY redeeming quality to this movie?

Must be as the non-reacist, Jewish-friendly, feminist, PC, Leftstream, Hollywood Pros have already given out four awards to this movie.

Go figure!

From what I’ve seen Streep only ever plays one character. She’s the same in every film. That’s not acting.

Yep, we were very lucky, and proud to hear such a stalwart for freedom. RR's right hand. No one has touched the two of them in greatness since then.

Streep can go where the sun don't shine as far as I'm concerned.....wait.....wait.....

She doesn't have to move a bit! Her head is already stuck there......

Yes, you're right and we were fortunate to live while those two, patriots adults were in charge. Glorious days in history.

How brave is this woman. Going after a man who’s been dead for 30 years.

Yep. 2014’s November elections are vitally important.
We’ll get a very good idea of our nation’s road map for 2016.
Pray and get involved to our level bests.

Streep is the most overrated actress in history.

Reason 1,739 not to go see a Meryl Streep movie.

I could only handle about half of that movie. Trash.

“Walt Disney hasn’t been wholesome for more than a decade”

Nor, come to think of it, has he been alive for more than a decade! Or for almost the past half century. But it’s fun to dig up and disparage the dead. Lefties have always hated Disney.

I’ve always thought this woman was physically ugly (and she’s become more so as she’s aged). Never knew till now, her soul was ugly too.

I agree, except for the fact that I always had a sneaking suspicion that she was pretty ugly on the inside too.
