Bigelow-The Hurt Locker - and Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc. are reportedly working on a film about the killing of bin Laden, which is slated for an October, 2012 release. Rep. Peter King (R-N.Y.) has called for a federal investigation into allegations that White House officials are providing Hollywood filmmakers with “top level access” to information surrounding the successful mission that killed Osama bin Laden. In King’s letter, he references an opinion column written by The New York Times’ Maureen Dowd over the weekend, in which she states that acclaimed movie director, Kathryn Bigelow, has been receiving “top-level access to the most classified mission in history from an administration that has tried to throw more people in jail for leaking classified information than the Bush administration.” Rep. Peter King - We should still be using waterboading! 8) Title: Re: Lawmaker: Probe White House involvement in Osama bin Laden film Post by: SUPERCOACH on August 10, 2011, 12:36:31 PM link (http://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/176287-lawmaker-wants-probe-into-white-house-involvement-in-bin-laden-film) Bigelow-The Hurt Locker - and Sony Pictures Entertainment, Inc. are reportedly working on a film about the killing of bin Laden, which is slated for an October, 2012 release.

Maureen Dowd: Hollywood Using SEAL Team 6 to Boost Obama’s Reelection Prospects? Big Hollywood. ADDED: Wonder what the Federal Election Commission thinks about this? This is a terrible thing Sony’s doing, using the bravery of these men to help Obama – politicizing their heroism. The decent thing to do is to move the release date well into December. Our utter failure of a president is looking to Hollywood for an October 2012 Surprise to save his hopes for a second term. Maureen Dowd says out loud what we all knew the moment the movie’s release date was announced: The White House is also counting on the Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal big-screen version of the killing of Bin Laden to counter Obama’s growing reputation as ineffectual. The Sony film by the Oscar-winning pair who made “The Hurt Locker” will no doubt reflect the president’s cool, gutsy decision against shaky odds. Just as Obamaland was hoping, the movie is scheduled to open on Oct. 12, 2012 — perfectly timed to give a home-stretch boost to a campaign that has grown tougher. The moviemakers are getting top-level access to the most classified mission in history from an administration that has tried to throw more people in jail for leaking classified information than the Bush administration. It was clear that the White House had outsourced the job of manning up the president’s image to Hollywood when Boal got welcomed to the upper echelons of the White House and the Pentagon and showed up recently — to the surprise of some military officers — at a C.I.A. ceremony celebrating the hero Seals. New York Times' Maureen Dowd is not a conservative writer. 8) Title: Re: Lawmaker: Probe White House involvement in Osama bin Laden film Post by: ricky023 on August 10, 2011, 03:30:00 PM Gosh the Democrats are willing to risk Treason to help Obama put our country in Bankruptcy by another term with obama?
