    So let's see, will the good Hollywood liberals that make propaganda movies and rail against the privileged white rich pull some strings to get their spawn put ahead of some nobody from the Bronx? Nah, of course not. They would never do that. Just like they work for minimum scale and eschew private jets like the good limousine liberals they are.

    What utterly, reprehensibly, irresponsible parents. Condemning their kid to a life in arguably one of the most sordid and damaging industries known to mankind. That's assuming one even gets into said industry - a roughly one in a squillion chance. Which in itself is evidence of how irresponsible such parents are.

    That's the point. The odds aren't that long when your parents fix it for you.

    Yeah, I get that. I have no issue with parents helping kids network for career advancement, but not in ways which obviate merit. That's just wrong.

    Meantime, they're still arse-wipes for letting their kid fall into their crappy line of 'work'. Plenty of parents end up in careers they'd never wish on their kids. Like the immigrant 'cleaners', working hard to make sure their kids don't end up in the same line of work.

    I am not sure what the issue is here. Or why conservatives would complain about using one's wealth to influence the results since they support that. :p

    Apparently all they have to is become conservative and there is no issue here.

    Eh. If there ever was a perfect force field of protection, it's to have Warren Beatty and Annette Bening as parents. You think any Hollywood sleaze would ever risk their professional career when their are busloads of unknown victims to choose from?

    These people should embrace their own ideas and implement quotas for celebrities and non-celebrities. Only 0.0000001% of applicants can be the children of celebrities.

    And you think Harvard and Yale alums don't do whatever they can to help their kids?

    Lots of parents, of all political stripes, do what they can to help their kids get ahead. What is your problem with this?

    You think this is wrong, but presumably you have no problem with Ivanka and Jared - two people with absolutely no political experience whatsoever - working in the White House? Their ONLY qualification for being there is that Daddy Small Hands is the president.

    You gonna show us your outrage for that?

    The point is that liberals preach against this. Obviously that's beyond your comprehension. Enjoy Al Gaw's book.

    Liberals preach against doing what any parent would do? Against standing in line with your kid, just like all other parents were doing?

    I've never seen such a bunch of crybabies in my life.

    Is this the hot news on Russian troll sites?

    This rw fanaticism has gone from outrageous, to shocking, to absurd and reprehensible. But now it's just sad and embarrassing.

    Who ffing cares? All parents want the best for their kids. Being a liberal or anything else is irrelevant. Getting into Julliard won't help anyone without natural talent. It can help get auditions or even jobs because going there and completing the program, being on your CV/resume, will help get auditions and such, but this girl only needs her parents' names to get auditions. Talent is the bottom line in success in the arts. I suspect that the child wants dearly to go to Julliard and her parents will do what they can to help her achieve that heart's desire. Attacking them for being loving parents is pretty low.

    Hate of anything liberal, or even anything not trump, is a freaking drug these days.

    They think opium addiction is bad. Trump addition is worse because it's killing an entire country and put the entire world in danger.

    They're form Hollywood, there can't be anything anyone from Hollywood can do this isn't a direct and present threat to the very fabric of the United States of America. Standing in line like every other parent? Marxist plot.

    Julliard?

    Terrorist fake university.


    How dare any child be creatively gifted and do something with that gift, there are countless shithole jobs for these terrorist liberal scumbag Tide pod eating retards to do.

    What do you do, btw?

    True. If it were a conservative Hollywood couple doing the same thing, this thread would be non-existent.

    Oh, for Pete's sake! Parents typically do whatever it takes. Was Anette the only parent there? If so, then yes, she is trying to influence the judges. If not, she was a mother being a mother.

    This is the kind of crap that gives the giver a bad name.

    You’ve been conned by the fraudulent tabloid scum. Though the headline and opening of the piece are clearly designed to create the impression you took away from it, the actual (limited) content describes Bening only doing exactly the same thing as the other parents and Beatty not even being there at all.

    Nope. I didn't make the assertion. I was responding to someone who made the assertion.
