NEW MOVIE REAFFIRMS SIR SAUNDERS FEARS FROM BIG ACADEMIC BROTHER
I can't wait to see this movie, from this great "super trailer" of 7 minutes, it looks like Ben Stein is tackling a subject that many sweep under the rug. This is no different though than what has been happening in academia for decades. In 1994, I read a study about the homeless that was very politically incorrect for it's day (stating that over 90% of the homeless were there by choice and mainly due to drug addiction). This study was initially banned for not supporting and furthering the liberal ideology that the homeless were a result of capitalist profiteers. This new movie seeks to shed the light that academic freedom is the freedom to say any liberal, left-wing thing you want but God help you (no pun intended) if you say something that is furthering a religious view point.
