Is There Hope for Hollywood?

Maybe. The Herald-Times (Australia) reports that actress Nicole Kidman and 84 other actors, directors and studio personnel have taken out a full page ad in the Los Angelas Times that condemns terrorism and names Hamas and Hezbollah specificially.
A who's who of Hollywood heavyweights joined Kidman on the ad.

The actors listed included: Michael Douglas, Dennis Hopper, Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis, Danny De Vito, Don Johnson, James Woods, Kelly Preston, Patricia Heaton and William Hurt.

Directors Ridley Scott, Tony Scott, Michael Mann, Dick Donner and Sam Raimi also signed their names.

Other Hollywood powerplayers supporting the ad included Sumner Redstone, the chairman and majority owner of Paramount Pictures, and billionaire mogul, Haim Saban.
Now, if we can just get these folks on the bandwagon that it is okay to fight these Islamofascist terrorists, we might start winning the PR battle...
