Ted Cruz is finally doing something about the pinkos in Hollywood toadying to the Reds in China:
Cruz bill aims to block Pentagon help to studios that censor films for China
The entertainingly-named SCRIPT Act (“The Stopping Censorship, Restoring Integrity, Protecting Talkies Act”) says that if your movie studio bends the knee to Chinese censors, you don’t get assistance from the DoD for future movies. You also get denied such assistance if you co-produce with a Chinese company that bends the knee. The end result of this would be a choice between making movies for the Chinese market, or making movies that have DoD assistance. I suspect that a whole lot of Hollywooders would just as soon ditch the DoD and any pretense towards *not* being running dogs for the ChiComs so they can lap up that sweet, sweet Chinese market-money.
While this bill is a good start, I think it would be better if it withdrew *all* US FedGuv aid from movie studios that engage in propaganda for our geopolitical rivals. Tax breaks, bailouts, and lack of daily spot raids by the INS, IRS, DEA, ATF and FBI should all be removed from such movie studios.
The full text of the bill should be HERE, but as I type this the Senate website is “unavailable due to maintenance.” Hmmm.
HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM…………………….
