The Savage Nation – MichaelSavage.com – Liberal Hollywood gives Jan. 6 a close-up — again
You watched the scripted congressional hearings in 2022. Now here comes Jan. 6: The Movie. Sean Penn is getting back behind the camera for the ripped-from-the-headlines film, albeit headlines from 2021. The Oscar winner’s project will star Bradley Cooper as a DC cop who battled MAGA radicals at the Capitol riot on Jan. 6, 2021. It’s the kind of movie we expect from a partisan superstar like Penn.
But his efforts might be upstaged by another political film that could beat the erstwhile Spicoli to the punch. Director Aaron Sorkin’s “The Social Reckoning” targets Facebook creator Mark Zuckerberg’s platform for supposedly misleading the public via misinformation and cruel algorithms. The film’s first trailer slams the “free speech” advocate for supposedly letting anything appear on his platform. (That would be news to the thousands of people who have been censored on, or suspended from, Facebook.) The film, a sequel to 2010’s “The Social Network,” reportedly ties Facebook posts to Jan. 6.
