For example on CNN Donald Trump attacks Streep for speech at Golden Globes
Meryl Streep never mentioned President-elect Donald Trump by name during her six-minute condemnation at the Golden Globes. He had no problem going after her directly.

In a series of tweets before dawn Monday, he called Streep, who has more Academy Award nominations than any other actor in history, "one of the most overrated actresses in Hollywood."
The additional comments had to do with the 1982 movie "Sophie's Choice" that got Meryl Streep an Oscar. Let's just say that Nazis forced Sophie to make a extremely painful choice. And then, of course, we have Herr Drumpf.

"There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge."

-- Isaac Asimov

New Finally watched her speech
Some reviews said it was carefully crafted so there was no line that could be pulled out to show how out of touch she - and by extension all of Hollywood - are with "real people". But one of the big reactions was when she said if all of them left the only thing on TV would be football mixed martial arts, "and those aren't the arts".

Yeah ... not helping.

We get more play than a 6-disc changer in a bitchin' Camaro.
