0:00:00.200 --> 0:00:02.200
<v Speaker 1>This is gonna sound like a horror story, but for

0:00:02.240 --> 0:00:05.000
<v Speaker 1>some people it's a reality. Imagine you head to the

0:00:05.000 --> 0:00:07.280
<v Speaker 1>mailbox after doing your taxes, your reach in you think

0:00:07.320 --> 0:00:10.479
<v Speaker 1>you're going to get your tax refund, only to find

0:00:10.600 --> 0:00:15.160
<v Speaker 1>that somebody's already filed and gotten your return. Identity thieves

0:00:15.200 --> 0:00:18.079

0:01:01.600 --> 0:01:05.280
<v Speaker 1>My friends, A picture looks grim for the big film studios.

0:01:05.319 --> 0:01:08.959
<v Speaker 1>The Wall Street Journal says this year's Oscars took place

0:01:09.080 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>during one of the gloomiest times for the movie industry

0:01:12.280 --> 0:01:15.800
<v Speaker 1>in recent memory. Paramount lost almost half a billion dollars

0:01:15.920 --> 0:01:19.160
<v Speaker 1>last year, Sony wrote off almost a billion. None of

0:01:19.160 --> 0:01:21.720
<v Speaker 1>the movies up for Best Picture made a hundred million dollars.

0:01:21.800 --> 0:01:25.000
<v Speaker 1>That's considered to break even point from major movies. According

0:01:25.040 --> 0:01:28.440
<v Speaker 1>to a survey by the Hollywood Reporters, sixty percent of

0:01:28.560 --> 0:01:33.280
<v Speaker 1>you could not name a single movie nominated for Best Picture. Now,

0:01:33.319 --> 0:01:36.440
<v Speaker 1>the Journal lists some reasons for all this. One Fewer

0:01:36.520 --> 0:01:39.160
<v Speaker 1>people go to the movies because the Netflix, HBO and

0:01:39.240 --> 0:01:42.520
<v Speaker 1>other ways of watching to lack of originality. Most big

0:01:42.560 --> 0:01:46.200
<v Speaker 1>studio movies are based on comic books, best selling novels,

0:01:46.319 --> 0:01:50.880
<v Speaker 1>or old franchises like Star Wars and Three Big Stars.

0:01:50.920 --> 0:01:53.960
<v Speaker 1>Sky high pay is hurting the bottom line. Now, these

0:01:54.000 --> 0:01:56.680
<v Speaker 1>explanations make sense as far as they go, but the

0:01:56.760 --> 0:02:00.200
<v Speaker 1>Journal leaves out a big reason that big movie is

0:02:00.280 --> 0:02:03.639
<v Speaker 1>laying an egg, and that's politics. The endless tie rage

0:02:03.640 --> 0:02:07.400
<v Speaker 1>from hardcore liberal actors have turned off millions of their

0:02:07.440 --> 0:02:12.200
<v Speaker 1>former customers. Hollywood is totally disconnected from much of its audience,

0:02:12.480 --> 0:02:16.880
<v Speaker 1>and with so many stars suffering Trump derangement syndrome, that's

0:02:16.880 --> 0:02:20.239
<v Speaker 1>not going to get better anytime soon. Liberalism is why

0:02:20.320 --> 0:02:25.480
<v Speaker 1>so many Americans think that Hollywood values just aren't worth

0:02:25.680 --> 0:02:28.880
<v Speaker 1>paying to see. Who wants to be insulted and slapped

0:02:28.880 --> 0:02:30.760
<v Speaker 1>in the face three straight hours
