Hollywood and the Kamala Blockbuster

Hollywood’s forays into politics are often elitist, counter-productive, and sometimes just plain cringey. But at the DNC, it wasn’t just Kamala Harris and Tim Walz who seemed to nail it, but the entertainment industry as well. Ankler contributor Alison Brower joins Sean McNulty and Janice Min from Chicago, where she explains the vibe shift in Hollywood’s approach, the Hollywood producers who put on the show, and the celebrity moments that worked and why. Also: Elaine Low, David Lidsky and Sean dissect the Bronfman vs. Ellison title fight for control of Paramount and how Iger will finally pass the baton at Disney. Learn more about your ad choices.
