Actor James Woods' Liberal Talent Agent Drops Bad News on Him on Independence Day
Actor James Woods is one of the few folks in the entertainment industry who is openly conservative and completely unashamed to speak out against the abuses of big government and the wackadoo culture that is spreading across our country.
However, given the pervasive existence of progressive thought in Hollywood, it’s not all that shocking to discover that Woods was blacklisted and skipped over for acting works simply because of his political views. This was somewhat to be expected.
Well, sadly, that doesn’t appear to be the end of the persecution, as Woods received an email from the talent agency that represents him, on the Fourth of July, stating that they were feeling “patriotic” and were letting him go.
The Oscar-nominated actor shared a screenshot of the email with the subject line “Well…” on his personal Twitter account Thursday.
The talent agent, Ken Kaplan, said that he’d come to the decision to no longer represent the outspoken conservative star because he was “feeling patriotic.”
“It’s the 4th of July and I’m feeling patriotic,” Kaplan wrote. “I don’t want to represent you anymore. I mean I can go on a rant but you know what I’d say.”
So this email from my agent (a political liberal) today… pic.twitter.com/RLXUWi9no8

My response: “Dear Ken, I don’t actually. I was thinking if you’re feeling patriotic, you would appreciate free speech and one’s right to think as an individual. Be that as it may, I want to thank you for all your hard work and devotion on my behalf. Be well.” https://t.co/nEe8OMaWb2

“Dear Ken, I don’t actually. I was thinking if you’re feeling patriotic, you would appreciate free speech and one’s right to think as an individual,” Woods replied.
“Be that as it may, I want to thank you for all your hard work and devotion on my behalf. Be well.”
While Kaplan did not explicitly say in the email that his decision to sever ties was over Woods’ personal politics, it does come after the 71-year-old actor revealed last October that he was retiring because he was “blacklisted” from Hollywood due to his conservative views.
“While #Liberals scream about the 50’s blacklist, my #Repub actor friends are terrified of losing their ability to provide for their families,” he once tweeted.
What’s truly hilarious about Hollywood is how hypocritical and borderline schizophrenic it is. On the one hand, they often claim that conservatives and folks on the right want to silence their voices and stop them from standing for what’s right — in their own eyes that is — making all kinds of movies about sticking it to the man.
In reality, conservatives don’t care if the left speaks their mind or not, believing they have the right to do so if they choose, it’s the left who has become the man, seeking to silence the voices of those who disagree with them.
If it wasn’t so sad and pathetic, it’d almost be funny.
