Lights! Camera! Leftism! How Hollywood Went Woke
It's no secret nowadays that Hollywood stars and directors slant left. But Hollywood wasn't always so woke. Years ago, actors would star in movies celebrating America. So how did we get here?\nChristian Toto has the answer.\nToto is founder of the conservative entertainment site HollywoodInToto.com as well as author of the new book "Virtue Bombs: How Hollywood Got Woke and Lost Its Soul."\nHe says Hollywood is just another casualty in the left's dominance of American culture.\n"It's the same way the culture went woke and lost its soul," Toto explains. "A few studio executives make a few decisions, a few actors realize if they share some woke virtue signaling on social media, they'll get more attention, more positive press. And it goes from there."\nToto joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to tell the story of Hollywood\u2019s turn to the left and what conservatives are doing to push back.\nWe also cover these stories:\n\nRussian President Vladimir Putin says America has ignored Russia\u2019s concerns over the West\u2019s position on Ukraine.\n\nSenate Democrats release legislation to amend the law governing the counting of Electoral College votes.\n\nDefense Secretary Lloyd Austin says National Guard troops are required to get a COVID-19 vaccine.\n\n\n Hosted on Acast.
