  Five minutes past the hour. It's the third hour, turning the page on
• 0:08
  the rundown. Here the Morning Show with Preston Scott Him Preston, He's Grant
• 0:11
  and this, my friends, is Jerome Hudson. He is the entertainment editor
• 0:15
  with Breitbart dot Com, author of the Fifty Things books. Hello, my
• 0:18
  dear friend, how are you. Oh? I'm just doing great. Can
• 0:22
  you hear me through my mask? Oh? Please? I try to listen
• 0:31
  as much as possible. Do you agree? Do you agree? Well,
• 0:35
  I just want to say you have me rolling in the public's parking lot.
• 0:39
  It was one of those situations where I was laughing, but I have my
• 0:42
  headphones in, so I didn't know how loud I was laughing, and I
• 0:45
  caught a couple of people looking at me. You know, I do well.
• 0:51
  I will just say, I mean, there are some people who,
• 0:54
  you know, need to wear a mask, but that number is so infintestinal.
• 1:02
  But I immediately so sorry for people when I see them wearing mask,
• 1:06
  like, oh gosh, let me let me test that. Let me test
• 1:10
  what you just said, Let me test what you just said. You say
• 1:14
  there should be people that that should be wearing masks. How many people out
• 1:19
  of one hundred out of the hold on, wait wait wait, wait wait,
• 1:23
  how many people out of a thousand did you notice wearing a mask before
• 1:29
  COVID? Oh? Sure? Like okay, So I will say there is
• 1:34
  one guy at the Why when I went to the Why here in Jacksonville,
• 1:38
  Florida. Other than that, but he he was carrying around an oxygen case,
• 1:44
  exactly exactly. And those people, absolutely they get a pass because they
• 1:49
  had a condition prior to COVID. But I am I am beyunconvinced that the
• 1:55
  the the ninety nine point nine percent of the people that are wearing masks.
• 2:00
  Now, A they've outed themselves they're liberal Democrats, and B they've just they've
• 2:05
  fallen into the delusion. You know, I have this, you know,
• 2:08
  I have this thing in me where I don't I typically try not to judge
• 2:14
  people just based on their physical appearance. I'm not judging them, and gosh,
• 2:19
  you know, I'm labeling them. I would like to think that they're
• 2:23
  all died in the wood rocked conservatives, but I wouldn't know it because I
• 2:29
  probably wouldn't be able to understand them enunciate through the mass telp me no,
• 2:34
  nope, nope, nope. Hey, so tell me what what would you
• 2:38
  say is the story in the last month on the entertainment page that should be
• 2:50
  on people's radar every fifth visit. You asked me this story, and it's
• 2:54
  I do not you know, outside of like the Back to the Few,
• 3:00
  which is really like a trilogy. It's hard for me to pick one thing.
• 3:06
  But gosh, you fortunately, I can't even do it right because I
• 3:09
  want to say Diddy because it's it's a hot story and it leeds into so
• 3:16
  many narratives. But I will say just the business of Hollywood. Hollywood has
• 3:23
  as I've said before, it has a brand issue. You know, many
• 3:29
  of the most famous and most beloved stars, as you put it, out
• 3:34
  at themselves as being very nasty and mean people, and that I guess that's
• 3:42
  okay, But when it came to politics, they really preached down to over
• 3:46
  half of the country in a vile and vicious way and just berated the very
• 3:53
  people that made them rich. Also, you know, they the Hollywood,
• 3:57
  the entertainment industry sort of cultivated to a culture of rape and sexual abuse for
• 4:04
  a long time. But it's brands, it's biggest brands have brand issues,
• 4:11
  right like I've said before Disney is the equivalent of a pantless man sitting in
• 4:15
  an ice cream truck across the street from a playground, like that's it's not
• 4:20
  good. And NBC Universal and so these studios teaming up to form these mega
• 4:32
  streaming services because I think, I just think that the content. If the
• 4:42
  content's good, people will watch it. And I think people will step aside,
• 4:46
  you know, whatever political feelings that they have about the actor that they're
• 4:49
  watching in this series of that movie. But the world is changing around the
• 4:56
  business of Hollywood, and one thing that's very clear is that streaming is losing
• 5:03
  these the parent company a lot of money, I think, but four billion
• 5:08
  dollars is what Disney lost. Disney's not really making money off of its news
• 5:13
  division, ABC because they put people like Jimmy Kimmel, you know, going
• 5:17
  back to the toxic uh face the ABC News division. I mean, it's
• 5:25
  you know, it is what it is. Uh And you know, ESPN
• 5:29
  has just been going through a decade of her molt yep and and so and
• 5:33
  and Disney plus they launched this thing because why not everybody else has a streamer
• 5:39
  and it's lost four billion dollars and it doesn't really stand to make a profit.
• 5:44
  So now Disney is teamed up with with with Max, which is Warner
• 5:49
  Brothers Discovery. Hang on a second, hang on, we got to break
• 5:53
  eleven past the hour. Jerome Hudson with me on the Morning Show with Preston
• 5:56
  Scott, twelve past the hour. Shorten this segment, just a bit catch
• 6:00
  back up? Joining us is Jerome Hudson Drome. Let's tie these together.
• 6:05
  You're just talking about the slide that the entertainment industry is on, but the
• 6:11
  lead story being Sean Diddy Combs and his latest problems and now the spotlight back
• 6:19
  on an incident in twenty sixteen. How do we tie these two together?
• 6:24
  It would seem that the culture that gave birth to Sean Combs isn't dead.
• 6:34
  Hello, good lord, hit the mute, didn't forget it? Sorry,
• 6:41
  Yeah, you're exactly right, boy. I'm going to do some editing there.
• 6:45
  The entertainment industry just has a brand issue, and the brand is very
• 6:49
  toxic. And you know, I mentioned the studios teaming up sort of one
• 6:58
  Big three and another Big three, right, because because that is that is
• 7:02
  evident people fewer people are going to the movies. You know, people,
• 7:08
  when people you give people choices and they don't have to pay their money to
• 7:13
  the affirmative action that is a cable subscription or satellite subscription, and they can
• 7:17
  pick and choose which streamers they want. Then you know, if if they
• 7:21
  don't want their children watching Disney Plus, then they'll go to Netflix for whatever
• 7:26
  reason, or they'll go to Hulu app Apple TV. And so these the
• 7:30
  studios realize that their their ships are sinking, and so they're just merging to
• 7:35
  make big ships. Uh but but but that won't solve the problem as long
• 7:41
  as they're creating content that people are turned off by, that are offended by.
• 7:46
  People won't won't spend what feels like fewer and fewer dollars to give to
• 7:51
  studios whose news divisions lie to them and lie about their neighbors and lie about
• 7:58
  their way of life. Well tell me that. But I want to say,
• 8:01
  we've been in this spiral because of what we do in the Hollywood Page
• 8:05
  specifically, but writ large at Bright Part News, we just we just we
• 8:09
  don't lie to our audience. We don't shortcut or short shift our audience.
• 8:16
  We tell you the truth. Were not perfect, and we get things wrong.
• 8:18
  But that is very much not what your politicians do. It's not what
• 8:22
  Hollywood executives do, it's not what music executives do, and it's certainly not
• 8:28
  what what Sean Diddy Combs did. Notwithstanding all the good things that Sean Combs
• 8:33
  has done, he's changed lives for probably countless people. He's he's got I
• 8:37
  think three charter schools in Brooklyn, fighting liberal Democrats to do that must have
• 8:43
  been a battle onto itself. He's made millionaires, he started businesses. But
• 8:48
  this guy has had a dark side for three decades. It was an open
• 8:52
  secret, just like it was with pick your favorite Hollywood executive rapist who was
• 8:58
  given Osters an Emmy, but was a predator and an abuser for a very
• 9:05
  long time. And just because we see a two minute video of Sean Combs
• 9:11
  beating the HG double hockey sticks out of a woman who was trying to flee
• 9:16
  is very abuse. It It is only the tip of the iceberg, and
• 9:24
  it's emblematic of a very very toxic industry filled with very good people, but
• 9:31
  certainly a lot of bad apples at the top. Yeah, all the good
• 9:35
  Sean Combs has done for people is not going to make the bad that his
• 9:41
  criminal go away. WUSLA on your phone with the iHeart radio app and on
• 9:46
  hundreds of devices like Alexa, Google Home, Xbox, and Sonos, says,
• 9:50
  and Iheart's radio station. Well, we might have had some climate protesters
• 9:56
  glue themselves to our runway this morning and tried to throw us off schedule,
• 10:01
  but we're back on schedule. They just speed bumps back with Jerome Hudson Brightbart
• 10:07
  dot com entertainment editor. Good morning, sir. Let's talk about that big
• 10:13
  picture. Now back to Hollywood. We talked a few weeks ago about Bob
• 10:16
  Iger claiming that he was going to pay more attention to, among other things,
• 10:20
  the Marvel franchise, you know, not focus so much on quantity.
• 10:24
  I agree with him, too many movies, but quality. But he's missing
• 10:28
  it. People don't support Marvel anymore because they hate the actors playing their heroes.
• 10:35
  Yeah, and it's not to say that Bob Biker isn't a smart man.
• 10:41
  You don't come the CEO of the largest media and travel and entertainment and
• 10:50
  theme park conglomerates not once but twice by being by being a silly, stupid
• 10:54
  man. Right, Bob Viker's ego is the size of jupid. He he
• 11:03
  made more than one attempt pressed than Bob Biger did to be the ambassador to
• 11:07
  China. And I just hold, I guess, a special regard for individuals
• 11:16
  who want to tie themselves to what I truly believe to be the closest thing
• 11:22
  to a Nazi regime that we've seen since the Third Reich. And whether that's
• 11:28
  you know, I may upset some people listening Elon Musk. I mean,
• 11:35
  starting and tying your electric vehicle company to a regime that is fomenting slave labor
• 11:43
  all over the country is anti Christian. It's just evil what the people who
• 11:48
  run the government of China are doing in Beijing. And that's what Bob Bayger's
• 11:52
  showed to me. Once I realized that, oh, this man is craven
• 12:00
  and and just you know, expedient for expedient's sake, which which doesn't make
• 12:07
  him unique right to very powerful individuals and business or politics or whatever. But
• 12:13
  when he when he outed himself and and just praised China, I get it.
• 12:18
  It's that market is very important to Disney, but he just went way
• 12:24
  too far. Well it it is, I mean, it is like it's
• 12:31
  I mean no, really, no, no, no, hold on,
• 12:33
  hold on, they can't buy their own goods over there. Who cares?
• 12:39
  I mean, they can't buy eighty percent of their own goods. We do,
• 12:43
  they can't, So why do they care? But they but they have
• 12:46
  the theme parks and those people. The theater and moviegoing market in Asia,
• 12:54
  specifically mainland China has just been a for fifty years, and it's been the
• 13:03
  one or one A or one B priority for studios to koutout to China to
• 13:11
  get their movies past the Chinese censors. And that's a decision that Disney made
• 13:16
  thirty years ago if Bob Iger was all on board with it. And so
• 13:22
  you know, no, Bob Biker doesn't care that. You know. Captain
• 13:26
  America is a decent actor on screen, But Spew's the most hateful things used
• 13:35
  to anyway before he sort of realized that his own brand was being hurt.
• 13:41
  Mark Ruffalo is just I actually think Mark Ruffalo is not a smart man.
• 13:46
  I mean, if you look, if you google Mark Ruffalo Breitbart, and
• 13:50
  you may have to search because Google is evil and they hide Breitbart links as
• 13:54
  much as they possibly can. But if you just look at our coverage of
• 13:58
  Mark Ruffalo. I don't, I don't. I don't want to, you
• 14:03
  know, taint the logic stream here, but it's hard not to get a
• 14:09
  sense that he's just not intelligent and and but no, I mean, that's
• 14:15
  that's that's Hollywood. I think duty you Gamma raised that it might be worse.
• 14:22
  But but our friend Patrick Karachi has a great podcast. He when the
• 14:31
  movie about the the Atlanta Olympics bombing, uh, directed by Clinty's Wood.
• 14:37
  I don't know why, I can't remember the name, but Patrick Carrolci went
• 14:41
  through the entire cast president of that film. They were all America hating people,
• 14:46
  and I mean just like they they hate everybody listening to this show,
• 14:50
  no matter what your politics are. And he deleted the tweet because because Warner
• 14:58
  Brothers just panicked and it was a tremendous takedown of how a great patriot like
• 15:03
  Clint Eastwood wants to make an amazing movie that tells an incredible story, but
• 15:11
  Hollywood's best known, most sought after actors, I mean, they're they're just
• 15:16
  ugly people when it comes to politics anyway, and their willingness to just crap
• 15:22
  all over the very people who made them rich. You know we continue to
• 15:26
  pray for these lost souls. I guess that's it, all right, Here's
• 15:31
  what I'm gonna do. I'm gonna tee you up for next month right now,
• 15:33
  you ready? Next month, I'm going to ask you to I'm going
• 15:37
  to ask you to answer, Will Joe Biden be the nominee after the Democrat
• 15:43
  National Convention? Okay? Oh man, kid, he not be because that
• 15:52
  would be so fun. But you know that's what I'm We're going to talk about that
