Hollywood Expose!

TV Executives Admit in Taped Interviews That Hollywood Pushes a Liberal Agenda
Some of TV's top executives from the past four decades may have gotten more than they bargained for when they agreed to be interviewed for a politically charged book that was released Tuesday, because video of their controversial remarks will soon be hitting the Internet.

The book makes the case that TV industry executives, writers and producers use their clout to advance a liberal political agenda. The author bases his thesis on, among other things, 39 taped interviews that he'll roll out piecemeal during the next three weeks.




Grab me some popcorn, I can't wait to watch Hollywood's reaction!!

Why The Hiatus

So I am sorry that Shout First, Ask Questions Later went on a little hiatus for the past few days.

I kinda got a little obsessed about my photography and trying to improve on certain shots.

Apparently, one must make certain priority choices when taking care of two small children, avoiding taking care of a house, "helping" your husband, keeping fish and a cat alive, entering online sweepstakes, blogging, taking 1,000s of pictures/editing pictures, arranging family celebrations and trying not to obsess about direly sick relatives. Oh and my beloved and charming youngest sister visited.

In short, blogging fell through the cracks.

I did get these shots though (a teeny, tiny, itsy bitsy sample - I promise) ... Enjoy.
