Hollywood Left - is this real? I can't find anything about it searching for "Hollywood Left" "mailing list" on Google. The inclusion of "see alsos" to October Revolution and Leni Riefenstahl makes it suspicious. RickK 23:38, Jun 11, 2004 (UTC)

  • Keep. The mailing list is explained e.g. at [1]. --Lumidek 23:45, 11 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • That article says that the people mentioned in the article went to a screening of Fahrenheit 9/11. There is no mention of a mailing list. RickK 00:03, Jun 12, 2004 (UTC)
    • O'REILLY: Who is them? I don't think they faxed Tom Selleck and Bruce Willis. I don't think they faxed Clint Eastwood and Kurt Russell. There must be a little list or a big list of people that they think they can mobilize. ... HAMMOND: There is a list but there's also an article that appeared ...
  • Sorry, that's not proof. RickK 00:12, Jun 12, 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete: O'Reilly, following Drudge, *alledges* that there is a mailing list (as in a USPS mailing list), then that there is a fax list. They were picking up political blog talk of a few Hollywood organizers who use their Rolodexes to gather up politically motivated folks. I.e. this is speculation, political, and highly POV. It's along the lines of "liberal elites." Geogre 00:13, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • HAHAHAHA. I watched this segment on O'Reilly last night. I never thought somebody would make a Wikipedia article about it. WOW. Ridiculous. Delete. blankfaze | •­• 00:56, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Keep. A great many people watch O'Reilly, so why shouldn't we cover the ideas he comes up with? It's easily famous enough. Everyking 02:03, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. O'Reilly alleges something for two minutes and its gets a article? No, sorry. If this were a recurring theme of his (and if said theme went by this specific title), then maybe keep. -Sean Curtin 03:34, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • This is a one-off allegation with nothing to back it up. Delete. -- Cyrius| 05:07, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Agree, not a significant catch-phrase of O'Reilly's, delete. Meelar 06:04, 12 Jun 2004 (UTC)
  • Delete. Of course Hollywood liberals have their friends' email addresses, of course they sometimes send out anti-Bush emails, and of course they know not to include the conservatives. As one of O'Reilly's guests asked him, "Well, Bill, is this a shock to you?" The Hollywood conservatives also have lists. People in other fields have lists. I get anti-Bush email, though admittedly not from any movie stars. Delete as nonencyclopedic. JamesMLane 07:17, 14 Jun 2004 (UTC)

Discussion closed.

RESULT: No consensus to delete, keep.

It seems like a bit of an odd article to me. It is, after all, about something that only allegedly exists. Kelisi 19:29, 19 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]


It's not even accurate, the names they list are actually names that attended a movie, not that are supposed to be on the list. ~mp

Merger[edit]

I have preposed merging the following articles to the LIBERAL ELITE article.

Firstly, they all say much of the same thing and secondly if they were all brought together it would give a worldwide viewpoint instead into "Liberal elitism" instead of having a US bias. I will copy this message on all the other article talk pages. All discussions should be done on the LIBERAL ELITE talk page so that all discussions are kept together. — Realist2 (Who's Bad?) 05:36, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

In case the proposed merger does not go through, "Liberal Hollywood" should redirect here. --Trrri333 (talk) 01:19, 7 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]
