"The Interview" - A Conspiracy Theory

If I were a conspiracy theorist, I would be REAL suspicious about how this Sony debacle has gone down. Let's see how it COULD have been...

Sony puts $70 million into a movie that critics say will bomb - no one will see it. What to do? They ask their gurus, and someone says it is possible to MAKE people want to see it. People are just tall kids, and the quickest way to get a kid to do something is to tell him not to, or that he cannot.

But how to do that?

Well, Sony has a guest pass to the White House, being big-time Hollywood donors, so they might ask someone there for help. It is determined that the first step is to have a reason why people CANNOT see the movie. For that they need a villain, and they have one that is built-in - the movie is about Kim Jung Un, hated by every American except Dennis Rodman and Bill De Blasio. So, we make it look like North Korea has threatened us if we show the movie, so our beloved American public will be deprived of seeing the movie.

The NSA is ordered to hack into Sony, releasing a few embarrassing emails, whereupon almost immediately the FBI says they traced it back to North Korea. The stage has been set.

News broadcasts 24/7 puts the movie into the public eye far more effectively than millions spent on PR and advertising. The public is outraged that North Korea is now dictating what movies we can see by threatening 9/11 style attacks if Sony puts the movie out. Suddenly, everyone wants to see the movie, if only to stick a finger in Kim's eye. But they can't - Sony has pulled the movie that was scheduled to open Christmas Day.

All of a sudden, just two days before Christmas, Sony announces they have become brave heroes - they will show the movie on Christmas after all! "Screw North Korea - we don't take orders from that little maggot." Americans will get to see the movie.

And Sony will make a hundred million on a movie that had been destined for the trash barrel.

Of course, that would only be a whacky conspiracy theory...

Right?

Huffington Post Followers Are Fanatics

While I understand that most sane people already know what a farce the Huffington Post is as far as being a "news" outlet, many do not realize that its followers are like rabid dogs. Here is just one example:

HuffPo ran a story about how one of the witnesses at the Ferguson Grand Jury was found to have lied. Sandra McElroy appears to have made up her entire testimony, supporting Darren Wilson.

Fine. She lied. But the trolls at HuffPo began an endless tirade calling for a murder trial for Wilson, and even disbarment for the prosecutor based on that one false testimony by someone simply seeking her 15 minutes of fame.

But what the HuffPo article did NOT disclose, and what those trolls ignore is the simple fact that SIX AFRICAN AMERICAN witnesses who WERE there all backed Wilson's account of what had happened. And they certainly would not lie on behalf of a white police officer.

So HuffPo is knowingly ignoring pertinent facts in order to push their liberal, socialist agenda, and they count on the "useful idiots", as Saul Alinski called them, to push that agenda out into the streets.

If Americans ever decide to smarten up, they will begin suing those who knowingly misrepresent the truth in order to further an agenda, particularly if it results in violence. Then, charlatans like Sharpton, De Blasio, Farrakhan and Huffington would finally be given their just rewards. And in the case of Sharpton and Farrakhan, who actively seek violence while talking peace, prison would be too good for them.
