I guess none of this is surprising. Hollywood is full of spoiled brats. Nothing to see here. What we probably didn't know, thanks to their donations to Democrat causes, is that some that are in the most powerful positions in the movie making business are also racists.
You can get a good feel for what a person is really like when you hear their private conversations. The NBA has successfully removed an owner simply because he said something in a private phone conversation that some would call not politically correct.
He was made an example of.
Anyone who doesn't knuckle under to the left gets their most private thoughts exposed. These are dangerous times we live in. You can't even think the wrong way it appears.
The following story doesn't appear all that bad, but all it would take is for the powers that be to give the media a nudge in the right direction and these people's lives are ruined:

Should Eric Holder decide to shake them down, I'm sure Sony can just write a big check to the Democrat Party and all will be forgiven.

Sony hack: Execs make racist jokes about Obama; A-listers slam those publishing leaks
By Hollie McKay

LOS ANGELES – It’s a plot that keeps thickening.
More incriminating personal information was leaked Wednesday following the unprecedented Sony Pictures hack, this time in the form of emails between top producers and executives belittling a number of major stars and projects, and even making racist jokes about President Barack Obama.
In one email exchange, Sony co-chairperson Amy Pascal -- a prominent Democratic party donor and Obama supporter -- asked movie producer Scott Rudin ahead of a fundraiser what she should ask the President "at this stupid Jeffrey (Katzenberg) breakfast," to which Rudin quipped "would he like to finance some movies."
"I doubt it. Should I ask him if he liked DJANGO?" Pascal responded, Rudin then retorted: "12 Years."
It goes on.
"Or the butler, or think like a man?" Pascal continued, to which Rudin wrote: "Ride-along. I bet he likes Kevin Hart."
Hart was also called a "whore" by another executive in another leaked exchange for requesting more money.
In other exchanges between Pascal and Rudin, Angelina Jolie was called a “spoiled brat,” and unflattering comments were made about everyone from Tom Cruise, David Fincher, Aaron Sorkin, and Adam Sandler.
Rudin issued a statement to Deadline apologizing for the emails, which he said were written in haste.
“I made a series of remarks that were meant only to be funny, but in the cold light of day, they are in fact thoughtless and insensitive — and not funny at all," he stated. "To anybody I’ve offended, I’m profoundly and deeply sorry, and I regret and apologize for any injury they might have caused.”
Because of the leaks, Sony executives are no longer corresponding via email but through text messages in an effort to avoid further information exposure, a well placed studio source told FOX411. It is being internally suggested that the studio may now have to pay its top-tier talent three times what they would have otherwise paid as “damage control” to lure them back.
“This is a relationship business and there is a lot of concern about what this does to future projects,” said the source. “But money always wins in the end. The consensus is if Sony can pay big they’ll return to the roost.”
The Jolie diss served as particular embarrassment for the company, with one source noting that Sony "is like a pariah" to A-list talent now.
However, crisis communications expert Gene Grabowski anticipates that for celebrities like Jolie and Sandler, who are the first to be slammed in the leaked emails, the damage — if any — will be fleeting.
“Calling movie actors spoiled, marginally talented brats is tantamount to calling members of Congress hypocritical windbags,” he said. “Everyone already knows such things to be true; it’s just so entertaining to hear people say it out loud.”
