PRIME TIME PROPAGANDA: THE TRUE HOLLYWOOD STORY OF HOW THE LEFT TOOK OVER YOUR TV
By Ben Shapiro
Broadside Books, $26.99, 416 pages
Hollywood is determined to transform America. This is the central theme of Ben Shapiro’s latest book. Mr. Shapiro is a nationally syndicated columnist and radio talk-show host. Unlike many on the right, he is a rare breed: a staunch social conservative who understands the importance of fighting - and winning - the culture war.
Mr. Shapiro convincingly shows that, for decades, television has been used by Hollywood leftists as a propaganda vehicle. Writers, executives and producers are not simply interested in making money and climbing the fame-obsessed ladder. They also are liberal ideologues pushing a radical agenda - abortion, homosexuality, higher taxes, big government, out-of-wedlock pregnancy, promiscuity, racial quotas, feminism, pacifism and secularism. In short, Tinseltown’s worldview can be distilled into one seminal idea: hatred of Middle America.
