From an online fweeper publication: James Woods Dissects Hollywood
From The Drudge Repost to World Nut Daily these online fweeper publications put so much crap on your computer, that you have to be sure to clean up after you go there, if you go there.

James Woods Dissects Hollywood

James Woods has been out promoting his latest movie, "Pretty Persuasion." In the film, he plays the racist father of a troubled teenager.

The actor recently revealed the reason why he believes Hollywood is suffering from box office blues.

Woods explained that movies today are "just horrible, as everybody knows now. They've gotten so bad."

According to Woods, most movies are deficient due to political correctness.

He explained to Zap2it, "In this politically correct era, the middle-aged heterosexual white guy gets to play one part, he gets to play the a**hole in the suit," Woods noted.

1. James "I saw the terrorists rehearsing for 9/11" Woods...
is a more suspicious character than anyone he's ever played.

5. Look, I like middle-aged straight white guys. I married one.
But geez . . . theirs is hardly a plight worth championing. What a whiner James Woods is! :eyes:

7. Woods mostly plays assholes in suits, and in this he plays a racist father
Nice way to fight the stereotyping he complains about.

11. There are more starring roles for likable heroic white male heterosexuals
in recent movies than there are starring roles for any other race gender or sexuality.
