“Liberals have achieved most of their social goals — abortion is legal across the board and gay marriage is going to become an eventuality,” according to Ben Shapiro, author of the book Primetime Propaganda: The True Hollywood Story of How the Left Took Over Your TV. “And that’s largely due to the influence of the popular mass media including television.”
Shapiro talks with Studio 360 about Hollywood’s liberal propaganda and what he thinks television studio should do about it.
