See, because, as Jonathan Demme says in Walter's other link (featuring a testy Denzel Washington):
It's fundamental to a democracy that you're not only permitted to speak out, you're supposed to have an opinion, you're supposed to speak out, you're supposed to engage in a discourse. And in this way, we arrive at ideas that can move us forward in a positive fashion. I wish everybody could get on TV and talk about how they feel. Maybe we'd learn something."But it's best if that opinion is informed, and some of those stars' opinions aren't very informed, now, are they? And most of them aren't nuanced, which is something I value.
