Sony executive at the heart of the leaked emails met with the civil rights activist to discuss battling an ‘exclusionary, almost all-white hierarchy’ in Hollywood.
Amy Pascal, the embattled executive whose personal emails were exposed by the hack on Sony Pictures, has met with civil rights advocate Al Sharpton to discuss white bias in Hollywood.
The meeting was prompted by leaked emails from Pascal to producer Scott Rudin, in which the pair joke about Barack Obama’s likely taste in films. “Would he like to finance some movies?” Rudin asked, ahead of Pascal meeting the president. “I doubt it. Should I ask him if he liked Django?”, replied Pascal, referring to Quentin Tarantino’s slavery-revenge thriller Django Unchained. The pair also suggested Obama might like 12 Years a Slave as well as films by black comedian Kevin Hart.
Pascal apologised for the remarks, saying they were “insensitive and inappropriate, but not an accurate reflection of who I am”(continued)

“No actual artists were used or harmed in the production of these films”
Could someone please post the mailing address of SONY’s CEO so we can mail him and tell him what a joke he has made of his company - hereafter known as SONY/SHARPTON PICTURES.
Let the Norks have them for all I care.
I’m through with Sony after its groveling before Sharpton and the Pot-Bellied Nork.

I would try to get a hold of the Japanese executives. Mention what a dishonor Pascal is causing Sony by getting in bed with Sharpton.
First the totalitarian North Korea, now the PHONY reverend-race baiting-murderer,with the blood of at leat EIGHT people on his ugly,waxy hands.
BOYCOTT SONY....FOREVER!!!! NOt only their “movies” but never buy another SONY prooduct,ever again!!!!
I think that is the case....and it might have even been the intent.
These LIBERALS would screw a snake if somebody held it... not scared it would bite ‘em.. scared it’d get away.
This is great news. I for one, think there is cultural blindness in movies. We need more fat black guys with James Brown hair in sweat suits and gold chains as the leading man in movies. That would get me to see more movies.
cha-ching, cha-ching
This whole thing is like a very bad movie.
Thank you!
Me too. A snail mail address would be fine with me.
Typical liberal...total coward and moron.
I hope Sony goes bankrupt. They make nothing but crap anyway.
