Speaker 1 (00:00):
The Michael Berry Show. The beginning of the inside jacket
to the book Hollywood Hypocrites by Jason Mattera says, are
you sick of self important celebrities preaching against global warming
yet flying private planes to their countless homes. Fed up
with lectures about charity and philanthropy from miserly rockers who
will do anything for a tax break. Disgusted by leftist
(00:23):
stars decrying the evils of the Second Amendment as their
personal bodyguards packed more heat than a Chuck Norris kick
to the face. The book is called Hollywood Hypocrites. The
author wise beyond his years and quite the activist. Jason Mattera,
just twenty eight years old, the youngest editor of a
national periodical, Human Events. He hosts a show on Sundays
(00:45):
four to six on WABC, probably the biggest station in America.
He wrote Obama Zombies, and he's in the news recently
over the Chris rock Ambush interview, which I love. Jason,
thanks for being with.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Us, Hey, Michael, thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I can't believe you've never been on the show before.
I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Well, I think this is the first time you invited me.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Are you serious?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I am serious. I do not I would not turn
down your show.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Well we're not, Bill O'Reilly. We don't just let everybody on.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Listen. You know, I have a little feud with O'Reilly.
He actually called me a pinhead for taking on Chris Rock.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
That would be the same Bill O'Reilly that refused to
let Rick santorumon until after he had won Iowa and
then trashed him the entire time. The guy who sucks
Barack Obama's toes. Yeah, that's okay to have a few him.
I think he's something of a pinhead himself, and I
think he should he should tone down the makeup of
tat or two. Let's talk about this fantastic book you've written.
I mean, this is just first class. It's absolutely first class.
(01:45):
And you, sir, have an Andrew Bright Bartian ability to
sort of fight the left with their own tools. Your
ambush interview of Chris Rock. Let's start there. What happened?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Oh, I'm just tired, sick and tired of how woodalloons
like Chris Rock smearing millions of Americans who go to
tea part party rallies, they wave their American flags, they
bring their children, they're patriotic, they're disgusted with the direction
of this country under Obama, and they're smeared as racists.
That's what Chris Rock said. They're racists and they are insane,
(02:18):
and nobody says a peep. He's not held accountable because
media aren't going to hold him accountable. They want to
have the Chris Rock interview, so I decided to.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
In fairness, Biggar and Blacker is one of the funniest seeds.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Listen. I am a huge Chris Rock fan. I love
watching his material, love it. You know, it pains it
pains me to have to do this to Chris Rock,
But listen, I'm just fed up of the left trying
to control this narrative and they're going to exacerbate it
in the twenty twelve this election that somehow we oppose
(02:53):
Barack Obama because of his skin color. That's flat out wrong.
We oppose him because he sucks as a president. He's
driving this country into the ground. And if I have
to take on Chris Rock, one of my favorite comedians,
I'm going to do so well.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
What I love How you did it is. Looking at
the video, which we've posted at Michael berry dot com
and we have links to all adjacent stuff on there is.
You walk up to him at this event, You first
say hey, can I get a photo? And you sort
of let him get his guard down, and then you
look in dead in the eye from eight inches away
and say, now you said that the tea party were racist,
(03:24):
and he just goes off on you.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
He does, he does, listen, I do. I wasn't even
really deceptive. I said, I'm from Brooklyn and I'm a
big fan of his. That's all true. And then I
went into questioning him on the tea party. In fact,
it really even wasn't a question. I as soon as
I just mentioned the tea party, I wanted the justification.
Hey man, just give me one bit of evidence why
(03:48):
the tea party is racist. As soon as I say
tea party, the guy tries to maneuver around bodyguards. Finally
he just goes a berserk and explodes. Tries to successfully
rips the care after a bit of a tussle with
my camera woman, rips it out of her hands, launches
the camera fifty feet, tries to smash it. Then he
(04:09):
turns to me and while he's safely behind two big
bodyguards want to throw down you want to throw down.
And I wish Michael that you can just see exactly
what happened, because he's lunging, like lunging over his bodyguard.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
He's about a bug.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Ten.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
He ain't hurting me anybody. I ain't buying thatn O.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Listen well, drugs. Drugs will do that.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
To you, you know what. I love The dedication in
the book says to Joe and Joyce Matera, you raised
me to fear no man. If there is one one
thing I try to make sure that from my show
that our listeners get is if you truly love this country,
then be fearless for what you believe in. And I
(04:51):
love that about that interview. I love the way you
take on your topics. I love the way you go
directly to the issues. And I honestly believe that's the
best tribute you could tell you could give your parents,
to Joe and Joyce Monterra, you raised me to fear
no man, because most people are walking around wanting to
do what you're doing, but afraid to.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah. And from an early age they said, the only
person you fear is God Almighty, and that's it. And
that's how I've been carrying myself because I mean, why,
especially why should I fear politicians or celebrities. I mean, seriously,
we're the ones that they have to cater to. You know,
Celebrities expect us to go to their movies and go
to their shows and buy their music. Politicians expect us
(05:31):
to go vote for them. We shouldn't be scared of them.
We should be holding them accountable. You know, Hollywood has
a huge megaphone. They have the ability to raise not
only tons of cash for Barack Obama and other liberal candidates,
but they have the ability to sell him on the
big screen. So conservatives cannot act like whimps and cower
and shy away. We have to go on the offensive.
(05:53):
We have to be the aggressors, and we have to
say listen, enough is enough. We're going to muzzle you,
and we're going to do it the facts and shame
you into silence unless you want to keep spouting your
mouth and expose yourself for the hypocrites that you are.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Jason Mattera is our guest. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites.
His first book, Obama Zombies, is priceless. Chapter two Private
Jets against global Warming.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Oh you gotta love the left. They take up the
cause of global warming propaganda, and yet their industry is
made up of a bunch of what I call pollution pips.
I mean, these people have sasquatch sized carbon footprints. For instance,
Barbara streisand PARPs, on her website about a global warming emergency, says,
(06:39):
we can all take steps to avoid the catastrophe by
using compact florests and light bulbs, by not running the
dishwater until it's full. But Babs, she spends twenty two
thousand dollars a year watering her warning gardens. She requests
one hundred and twenty bath sized towels upon her arrival
to hotels, and for her un she uses thirteen thirteen
(07:03):
fifty three foot semi trailers. I mean, my goodness, you
and I Michael would have to walk around all day
long spraying aerosol cans in the air just to keep
up with her car.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We can't afford to keep up. Whether can you hold
with us? Jason? Yes, Jason Mattera is our guest. The
book is Hollywood Hypocrites. Learn more about him on our
blog at Michael Berry dot com. Our conversation with him
about Michael Moore Spike Lee, Alec Baldwin, Whoopy Goldberg and
Moore coming up the Michael Berry Show. The book is
(07:35):
called Hollywood Hypocrites, The Devastating Truth about Obama's biggest backers.
And what is that devastating truth, Jason?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Well, most people don't realize the power exus between the
Hollywood and the Obama administration. It's so deep. You know.
We hear a lot of belly aching today from the
left about Wall Street money and Citizens United, the Supreme
Court case and super packs and big oil. Obama has
the biggest industry in America on his size, who not
only act as his top financiers, but help frame his
(08:06):
reelection message. And you know, that's why I wanted to
spend the year investigating Hollywood and to show people that
when Barack Obama not only just gets CLOBs of cash
from them, he stops and as behind the scenes, ask
them for help in marketing and framing his reelection message
in twenty twelve. There are a lot of conservatives who
(08:27):
I think misguidedly write off Hollywood, dismiss them and say,
you know, these are just dumb celebrities. Their endorsements don't
matter much, and their endorsements do matter. There are people
who take their political cues, whether we like it or not,
from celebrities. And that's why I wanted to say, do
they actually do these celebrities Obama's biggest backers. Do they
(08:49):
live by the same standard and policy prescriptions that they
try to foist on the rest of us.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And you came to the conclusion they didn't give us
some examples.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Well, here's another one. Vona considered just a rock saint.
And you know, he is a nice guy, and I'm
sure his heart is in the right place. This man
is a major league hypocrite. He comes to the United States,
as he does every single year for a World Age Day,
likes to lecture an hector us that we need to
send more money to Africa, more money down poverty programs
(09:21):
around the world. And he actually says that even in
our dire economic times that we're facing, that we have
to punish politicians who dare try to curtail foreign aid
saying cuts with cost lives. Well, this guy, he moved
you two from Ireland to Holland to take advantage of
(09:44):
a much much lower tax rate on music royalties, almost
eliminating their tax liability altogether. So here you have a
guy who's rating the poverty programs that he purports the champion,
because you know, it's not private charity he's talking about.
He's talking about money that has gotten through taxation to
send to Africa, and yet when it comes to his
(10:06):
personal finances, he tries to hoard and hog all of
it as possible.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Ariana Huffington wrote a book called Pigs at the Trough
How corporate greed and political corruption are undermining America. And
you begin the chapter the priestess of pigs capitalist that
is Ariana Huffington is one scary broad wine.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
She is. You know, we know this is a woman
who first started out as a conservative, then said she
switched side she's a leftist, then hoodwinked everyone by becoming
a mega capitalist and selling the Huffington Post to AOL
ranking in three hundred million dollars reportedly, and she had,
you know, she has the audacity to talk about corporate greed,
(10:48):
and she just left nine thousand bloggers who were writing
for free to write for free. They didn't get no payday.
But what I found so fascinating and kind of scary
is the creator of the most influenced progressive media platform.
Ariana Huffington is a priestess in a very little known
cult called Messiah.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
That's how they pronounced it.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
They pronounce it Messiah, Yeah, and it's based in California,
very New age, and know she's been trying to distance
herself from it on and off for the last thirty years.
It's very very odd. They believe that their head, a
guy by the name John Roger, is actually higher than
Jesus Christ, and he's the embodiment of someone higher than
(11:31):
Jesus Christ every twenty five thousand years. So I just
thought it's fascinating that we never hear this about Ariana Huffington,
who is involved in some very very weird stuff that
I think if a conservative with her similar influence would
have been exploited a lot more in the media.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Jason Matteros our guest. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites, Chapter
five Hollywood hate monger Spike Lee, Oliver Stone, Whoopi Goldberg,
Ted Danson, and Hollywood's racist race baiting progressives.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Oh, Spike Lee has never met a slave metaphor he
did not want to use. This man is so filled
with hate. He bashes whites and blacks, He bashes conservative
blacks for not thinking the right way. He bashes people
like Clint Eastwood for not putting blacks in movies. He actually,
(12:17):
I don't even know if you know this. He slammed
Clint Eastwood for not including blacks in the movie Letters
from Iwo Jima, which was the perspective of the Japanese.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, you say that. He slammed Woody Allen because he
doesn't have enough black people in his movies set in
Manhattan when Manhattan is half black in Hispanic Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
You know it's but this is Spike Lee, right, you know,
he's a hateful guy, Barack Obama. Though while he's trying
to lecture the rest of us about civility and our
course in culture, right, we have to be respectful of
everyone's ideas. That's in the narrative the left is trying
to foist. Now, this man is happy to go, as
he did recently a month and a half ago, to
(12:57):
Spike Lee's home in Manhattan for a fundraiser thirty eight
thousand dollars a plate raked in six one point six
million dollars that evening overall, And Spike Lee has said
such racially insensitive things over the years. Now granted, his
racism has matured because in the early nineties when you
can say, well, he was just still a young buck
in the early nineties. Spike Lee once when he got
(13:18):
back from Africa to South Africa, he was quoted as saying,
I seriously wanted to pick up a gun and shoot whites.
The only way to resolve matters is by bloodshed.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Jason Mattera. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites, Chapter six Hollywood
Leftist Loon Lifetime Achievement Award, and the winner is Alec Baldwin.
In the news recently, Yes, yes, good old Alec Bowlin.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Here's a man who rails against the evils of big
banks raiding taxpayers for bailout money. And he became the
pitchman for Capital One, which received three point five six
billion of that very same bailout money he decries. He
drones on and on about how Republicans have allegiance to
corporate profitability a gate. Here's a dude who works for
(14:03):
General Electric. His main paycheck General Electric, which in twenty
ten had an effective American tax rate of zero. So
you know, if Alec Baldwin and I don't begrudge anyone
for trying to lower their tax rate. But the problem is,
if you're going to tell us that your decrying tax
cuts for the rich, if you're going to tell us
that you're against the Wall Street of bailiffs, please, you
(14:25):
got to start leading by example and start stuffing your
pocket with taxpayer money or that evil corporate profitability that
you so hate on the blog sphere.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Jason, how are you on time? Can you stay with
us for another segment?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
All right. The book is called Hollywood Hypocritian. I want
to get back to the book. But tell me if
you would when you wrote Obama Zombies your first book?
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
That was my first book?
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Yeah, first book. I'm curious because a lot of our
listeners want to get involved. A lot of our listeners
do research. A lot of our listeners write blogs. We
have a woman who writes as a volunteer for a
lot of these blogs. How how did you take that
book and get it published?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
You know, it's a very good question I and it's
hard for me to answer it because I had a
publish or reach out to me.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And what did you do to get their attention?
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Well, you know, I was very active confronting politicians on
Capitol Hill with cameras, you know, filling the void. That's
the mainstream media, the toolbags and the press were not doing.
And I caught the eye of a publisher and they said,
you are you interested in writing a book? And if so,
do you have any book concepts? And I did. I
had Obama Zombies in my head after the two thousand
and eight election. And you know, it's a growing process
(15:35):
to write a book. It's it's not all glorious. People
think it's you know, I had to give up my
entire social life for about a year to write research
and then promote the book.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Well, trust me, I've been working on this for a while.
I have a new appreciation. Jason, can you hold with us?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah? You got all right.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Jason Mattera is the author of Hollywood Hypocrites. He's the
national editor of Human Events. Was also the author of
Obama Zombies. We're going to talk to him the next
chapter I Love Be Healthy or else. How Hollywood loons
follow deer leaders lead in lusting to regulate what we
do buy and eat. Stay tuned how Michael Larry shows
(16:16):
Fax number three hundred and seventy two liberals contain toxins.
Therefore they cleanse yes return that energy to Earth. So
Father Gore may power himself. Say what Hollywood has no shame,
as noted in the book Hollywood Hypocrites. So chapter eight,
Jason be healthy or else? I love this how Hollywood
(16:38):
loons follow deer leaders lead in lusting to regulate what
we do buy and eat.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah, absolutely, we already know Michelle Obama right. She likes
to wag her organic fingers in our faces and even
put our kids. I mean, this is scary. You actually
put our kids on fat scales. They want to institute
what's called body mass in the reports to accompany great reports,
which yeah, is exactly what fact kids need for their
(17:05):
self esteem. It's gonna be told that they have three chins.
But here's where the hypocrisy comes in. If Michelle Obauma
really wanted to lecture the rest of America on how
we should eat, First of all, her husband shouldn't be
caught wolfing down chili dogs every time he's away from her.
But more importantly, the biggest, the biggest, you can say,
(17:25):
advocacy for fried foods and salty snacks and all those
sugary items that we know aren't good for us. They're
actually through product placements in movies. I mean, we know
this from multiple years of data research. So that's why
you have lazed potato chips and you know M and
M's and all these fast food joints for or sugary
(17:45):
items where they'll companies they'll they'll place big bucks into
these movies and that will increase consumerism for those products. Now, hey,
I love the sugary items, but if she's gonna wag
her finger, she should wag it at and wrap the
movie industry for allowing these ads to be taking place.
But you know what, they're never gonna do that, Michael.
(18:06):
Why because of the cast flow. The movie industry makes
millions and millions of dollars through these ad billions of
dollars through these advertisements, and then they're able to fund
that right to the Obama campaign. The two biggest bumblers
for the Obama campaign are Hollywood movie executives.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Wow, Jason Mattera, The book is Hollywood Hypocrites. Chapter nine,
Be peaceful or I'll shoot your ass. Why leftists do
not good violence spokespersons make you note the quote by
Barack Obama. They bring a knife to the fight, We
bring a gun. You know, It's interesting because this morning
I played some of these audio files of people and
(18:44):
hold on just to say, this is a good little
reminder of exactly what we're dealing with. You see, if
I can find me, Oh, here we are Montel Williams.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
So Michelle slight your rest, g alhead. Why not if
you want to go where you are or or you know,
it's all a better thing. Move that knife up about
two feet.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
That's nice, isn't it all right at the collar bone?
Or Mike malloy talking about uh about the Bush Press
Secretary Dana Perino.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I used to have violence fantasies about uh, Scott McClellan
because of the impenetrable wall of idiocy and supposed ignorance
some of which was probably not supposed, that behind which
he used to hide at every press conference. All those
(19:34):
feelings are being shifted now to Dana Perino violence fantasies,
and I don't like I don't like it when I
get violence fantasies, because you know, I've tried my whole
life to overcome the idea that violence does anything except
cause more violence. But kind of a just hard.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I love this paragraph. In fact, the profits of the
entertainment industry are so tolerant, so compassionate, and so desirous
of peace that they will beat your ass if you
dare disagree with them. And God help the conservatives if
and when any act of violence does irrupt, because when
it does, progressives will make sure Sarah Palin, Glenn Back
or Rush Limbaugh gets stuck with the blame.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, that's absolutely what happens. You know, I considered whether
or not to include the Montell Williams and the Mike
molloy rants, hateful, hateful, vile rants in my book because
I said, you know what, nobody really knows who these
people are anymore. I mean, Montell Williams has a radio show,
who you know who would have sunk it? It's more
like infomercials that he you know that, In fact, that's
(20:36):
exactly what it is. He gets these infomercials to really
sponsor him from.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Michael Maloy companies.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah, Michael, Michel Lloyd. I mean, come on, nobody knows
what hell these people are, but they are dripping with hatred.
You know what's interesting, though, is uh is how all
these rappers who are huge, huge Obama supporters and headline
events for him raise money for him. They're all part
of these Eliminate All War groups. They're all supposed peace activists,
(21:02):
how they and they put out these albums, and you know,
I think they're very talented. Some of their songs I
really really like. But some like Kanye West, who calls
himself a peace activist, right, he's parts of a group's
Eliminated All War. What are his CDs called? My Beautiful,
Dark Twisted Fantasy had female corpses hanging from the ceiling,
Kanye West holding a woman's blood soak the severed head,
(21:24):
women held captive women and nooses. I mean, I talk
about coursing our culture and Obama's fine with these people
associating himself with them and raising money. The funniest I
think was when Obama boasted he had a little Wayne,
and he was listening to Little Wayne, a rapper on
his iPad iPod, and it was at the same time
he said, yeah, listen to Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne was
(21:47):
in serving a sentence in jail for a legal gun possession.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Are jay Z and the things jay Z has said.
Last thing I'll ask you, Jason Mattero, the book is
Hollywood Hypocrites. Your first chapter is high Hollywood welfare. And
you note a quote from director Michael Corente noting, Hey,
you know what, studio executives, they would shoot a movie
on Mars if they could get a twenty five percent
tax break.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
They absolutely would. They're forward to forty three states that
allow tax subsidies or subsidies directly to movie companies to
encourage film production in that particular state, and they are
total cowpies for taxpayers because they end up costing up
their money sending it to someone like Michael Moore. Literally,
Michael Moore got a check of one million dollars from
(22:32):
the taxpayers in Michigan to help produce Capitalism, a love
story which trashed capitalism. But regardless if a trashed or
didn't trash it, we shouldn't be having to subsidize the
movie production of millionaires. It's crazy, it's absurd, and it's
something that goes on in forty three states. So when
we look at movie producers to where s that come
to mind welfare recipients.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Well, he certainly shouldn't be execting dollars from these evil
taxpayers that he hates so much. There might have been
some guns and God's folks in there? Who are these
pictures on the front? I can recognize John Travolta. The
devastating truth about Obama's biggest backers. We'll be Goldberg, Spike Lee.
Is that Alec Baldwin, Michael Moore, Kanye West? Is that
(23:14):
Cameron Diaz?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Correct?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
And then who is the other? Oh? That's Rob Riner. Okay,
it's kind of a it's all in that Barack Obama
hope and change picture. And then who's the last one
there with the dimple mat Matt Damon?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Excuse me, I'm skim sorry, Leonardo dicapric.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Oh, there you go. Well, it's all the same.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
They're all the same, but they have massive influence and
we gotta we gotta start taking them on.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
Fantastic. Thanks for being with us, Jason.

thanks for being with.
Speaker 2 (00:59):
Us, Hey, Michael, thank you for having me.
Speaker 1 (01:00):
I can't believe you've never been on the show before.
I'm a huge fan.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
Well, I think this is the first time you invited me.
Speaker 1 (01:06):
Are you serious?
Speaker 2 (01:07):
I am serious. I do not I would not turn
down your show.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Well we're not, Bill O'Reilly. We don't just let everybody on.
Speaker 2 (01:16):
Listen. You know, I have a little feud with O'Reilly.
He actually called me a pinhead for taking on Chris Rock.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
That would be the same Bill O'Reilly that refused to
let Rick santorumon until after he had won Iowa and
then trashed him the entire time. The guy who sucks
Barack Obama's toes. Yeah, that's okay to have a few him.
I think he's something of a pinhead himself, and I
think he should he should tone down the makeup of
tat or two. Let's talk about this fantastic book you've written.
I mean, this is just first class. It's absolutely first class.
(01:45):
And you, sir, have an Andrew Bright Bartian ability to
sort of fight the left with their own tools. Your
ambush interview of Chris Rock. Let's start there. What happened?
Speaker 2 (01:56):
Oh, I'm just tired, sick and tired of how woodalloons
like Chris Rock smearing millions of Americans who go to
tea part party rallies, they wave their American flags, they
bring their children, they're patriotic, they're disgusted with the direction
of this country under Obama, and they're smeared as racists.
That's what Chris Rock said. They're racists and they are insane,
(02:18):
and nobody says a peep. He's not held accountable because
media aren't going to hold him accountable. They want to
have the Chris Rock interview, so I decided to.
Speaker 1 (02:28):
In fairness, Biggar and Blacker is one of the funniest seeds.
Speaker 2 (02:32):
Listen. I am a huge Chris Rock fan. I love
watching his material, love it. You know, it pains it
pains me to have to do this to Chris Rock,
But listen, I'm just fed up of the left trying
to control this narrative and they're going to exacerbate it
in the twenty twelve this election that somehow we oppose
(02:53):
Barack Obama because of his skin color. That's flat out wrong.
We oppose him because he sucks as a president. He's
driving this country into the ground. And if I have
to take on Chris Rock, one of my favorite comedians,
I'm going to do so well.
Speaker 1 (03:03):
What I love How you did it is. Looking at
the video, which we've posted at Michael berry dot com
and we have links to all adjacent stuff on there is.
You walk up to him at this event, You first
say hey, can I get a photo? And you sort
of let him get his guard down, and then you
look in dead in the eye from eight inches away
and say, now you said that the tea party were racist,
(03:24):
and he just goes off on you.
Speaker 2 (03:27):
He does, he does, listen, I do. I wasn't even
really deceptive. I said, I'm from Brooklyn and I'm a
big fan of his. That's all true. And then I
went into questioning him on the tea party. In fact,
it really even wasn't a question. I as soon as
I just mentioned the tea party, I wanted the justification.
Hey man, just give me one bit of evidence why
(03:48):
the tea party is racist. As soon as I say
tea party, the guy tries to maneuver around bodyguards. Finally
he just goes a berserk and explodes. Tries to successfully
rips the care after a bit of a tussle with
my camera woman, rips it out of her hands, launches
the camera fifty feet, tries to smash it. Then he
(04:09):
turns to me and while he's safely behind two big
bodyguards want to throw down you want to throw down.
And I wish Michael that you can just see exactly
what happened, because he's lunging, like lunging over his bodyguard.
Speaker 1 (04:24):
He's about a bug.
Speaker 3 (04:25):
Ten.
Speaker 1 (04:25):
He ain't hurting me anybody. I ain't buying thatn O.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Listen well, drugs. Drugs will do that.
Speaker 1 (04:29):
To you, you know what. I love The dedication in
the book says to Joe and Joyce Matera, you raised
me to fear no man. If there is one one
thing I try to make sure that from my show
that our listeners get is if you truly love this country,
then be fearless for what you believe in. And I
(04:51):
love that about that interview. I love the way you
take on your topics. I love the way you go
directly to the issues. And I honestly believe that's the
best tribute you could tell you could give your parents,
to Joe and Joyce Monterra, you raised me to fear
no man, because most people are walking around wanting to
do what you're doing, but afraid to.
Speaker 2 (05:10):
Yeah. And from an early age they said, the only
person you fear is God Almighty, and that's it. And
that's how I've been carrying myself because I mean, why,
especially why should I fear politicians or celebrities. I mean, seriously,
we're the ones that they have to cater to. You know,
Celebrities expect us to go to their movies and go
to their shows and buy their music. Politicians expect us
(05:31):
to go vote for them. We shouldn't be scared of them.
We should be holding them accountable. You know, Hollywood has
a huge megaphone. They have the ability to raise not
only tons of cash for Barack Obama and other liberal candidates,
but they have the ability to sell him on the
big screen. So conservatives cannot act like whimps and cower
and shy away. We have to go on the offensive.
(05:53):
We have to be the aggressors, and we have to
say listen, enough is enough. We're going to muzzle you,
and we're going to do it the facts and shame
you into silence unless you want to keep spouting your
mouth and expose yourself for the hypocrites that you are.
Speaker 1 (06:06):
Jason Mattera is our guest. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites.
His first book, Obama Zombies, is priceless. Chapter two Private
Jets against global Warming.
Speaker 2 (06:17):
Oh you gotta love the left. They take up the
cause of global warming propaganda, and yet their industry is
made up of a bunch of what I call pollution pips.
I mean, these people have sasquatch sized carbon footprints. For instance,
Barbara streisand PARPs, on her website about a global warming emergency, says,
(06:39):
we can all take steps to avoid the catastrophe by
using compact florests and light bulbs, by not running the
dishwater until it's full. But Babs, she spends twenty two
thousand dollars a year watering her warning gardens. She requests
one hundred and twenty bath sized towels upon her arrival
to hotels, and for her un she uses thirteen thirteen
(07:03):
fifty three foot semi trailers. I mean, my goodness, you
and I Michael would have to walk around all day
long spraying aerosol cans in the air just to keep
up with her car.
Speaker 1 (07:14):
We can't afford to keep up. Whether can you hold
with us? Jason? Yes, Jason Mattera is our guest. The
book is Hollywood Hypocrites. Learn more about him on our
blog at Michael Berry dot com. Our conversation with him
about Michael Moore Spike Lee, Alec Baldwin, Whoopy Goldberg and
Moore coming up the Michael Berry Show. The book is
(07:35):
called Hollywood Hypocrites, The Devastating Truth about Obama's biggest backers.
And what is that devastating truth, Jason?
Speaker 2 (07:45):
Well, most people don't realize the power exus between the
Hollywood and the Obama administration. It's so deep. You know.
We hear a lot of belly aching today from the
left about Wall Street money and Citizens United, the Supreme
Court case and super packs and big oil. Obama has
the biggest industry in America on his size, who not
only act as his top financiers, but help frame his
(08:06):
reelection message. And you know, that's why I wanted to
spend the year investigating Hollywood and to show people that
when Barack Obama not only just gets CLOBs of cash
from them, he stops and as behind the scenes, ask
them for help in marketing and framing his reelection message
in twenty twelve. There are a lot of conservatives who
(08:27):
I think misguidedly write off Hollywood, dismiss them and say,
you know, these are just dumb celebrities. Their endorsements don't
matter much, and their endorsements do matter. There are people
who take their political cues, whether we like it or not,
from celebrities. And that's why I wanted to say, do
they actually do these celebrities Obama's biggest backers. Do they
(08:49):
live by the same standard and policy prescriptions that they
try to foist on the rest of us.
Speaker 1 (08:54):
And you came to the conclusion they didn't give us
some examples.
Speaker 2 (08:57):
Well, here's another one. Vona considered just a rock saint.
And you know, he is a nice guy, and I'm
sure his heart is in the right place. This man
is a major league hypocrite. He comes to the United States,
as he does every single year for a World Age Day,
likes to lecture an hector us that we need to
send more money to Africa, more money down poverty programs
(09:21):
around the world. And he actually says that even in
our dire economic times that we're facing, that we have
to punish politicians who dare try to curtail foreign aid
saying cuts with cost lives. Well, this guy, he moved
you two from Ireland to Holland to take advantage of
(09:44):
a much much lower tax rate on music royalties, almost
eliminating their tax liability altogether. So here you have a
guy who's rating the poverty programs that he purports the champion,
because you know, it's not private charity he's talking about.
He's talking about money that has gotten through taxation to
send to Africa, and yet when it comes to his
(10:06):
personal finances, he tries to hoard and hog all of
it as possible.
Speaker 1 (10:11):
Ariana Huffington wrote a book called Pigs at the Trough
How corporate greed and political corruption are undermining America. And
you begin the chapter the priestess of pigs capitalist that
is Ariana Huffington is one scary broad wine.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
She is. You know, we know this is a woman
who first started out as a conservative, then said she
switched side she's a leftist, then hoodwinked everyone by becoming
a mega capitalist and selling the Huffington Post to AOL
ranking in three hundred million dollars reportedly, and she had,
you know, she has the audacity to talk about corporate greed,
(10:48):
and she just left nine thousand bloggers who were writing
for free to write for free. They didn't get no payday.
But what I found so fascinating and kind of scary
is the creator of the most influenced progressive media platform.
Ariana Huffington is a priestess in a very little known
cult called Messiah.
Speaker 1 (11:07):
That's how they pronounced it.
Speaker 2 (11:09):
They pronounce it Messiah, Yeah, and it's based in California,
very New age, and know she's been trying to distance
herself from it on and off for the last thirty years.
It's very very odd. They believe that their head, a
guy by the name John Roger, is actually higher than
Jesus Christ, and he's the embodiment of someone higher than
(11:31):
Jesus Christ every twenty five thousand years. So I just
thought it's fascinating that we never hear this about Ariana Huffington,
who is involved in some very very weird stuff that
I think if a conservative with her similar influence would
have been exploited a lot more in the media.
Speaker 1 (11:46):
Jason Matteros our guest. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites, Chapter
five Hollywood hate monger Spike Lee, Oliver Stone, Whoopi Goldberg,
Ted Danson, and Hollywood's racist race baiting progressives.
Speaker 2 (11:57):
Oh, Spike Lee has never met a slave metaphor he
did not want to use. This man is so filled
with hate. He bashes whites and blacks, He bashes conservative
blacks for not thinking the right way. He bashes people
like Clint Eastwood for not putting blacks in movies. He actually,
(12:17):
I don't even know if you know this. He slammed
Clint Eastwood for not including blacks in the movie Letters
from Iwo Jima, which was the perspective of the Japanese.
Speaker 1 (12:29):
Yeah, you say that. He slammed Woody Allen because he
doesn't have enough black people in his movies set in
Manhattan when Manhattan is half black in Hispanic Yeah.
Speaker 2 (12:36):
You know it's but this is Spike Lee, right, you know,
he's a hateful guy, Barack Obama. Though while he's trying
to lecture the rest of us about civility and our
course in culture, right, we have to be respectful of
everyone's ideas. That's in the narrative the left is trying
to foist. Now, this man is happy to go, as
he did recently a month and a half ago, to
(12:57):
Spike Lee's home in Manhattan for a fundraiser thirty eight
thousand dollars a plate raked in six one point six
million dollars that evening overall, And Spike Lee has said
such racially insensitive things over the years. Now granted, his
racism has matured because in the early nineties when you
can say, well, he was just still a young buck
in the early nineties. Spike Lee once when he got
(13:18):
back from Africa to South Africa, he was quoted as saying,
I seriously wanted to pick up a gun and shoot whites.
The only way to resolve matters is by bloodshed.
Speaker 1 (13:29):
Jason Mattera. The book is Hollywood Hypocrites, Chapter six Hollywood
Leftist Loon Lifetime Achievement Award, and the winner is Alec Baldwin.
In the news recently, Yes, yes, good old Alec Bowlin.
Speaker 2 (13:40):
Here's a man who rails against the evils of big
banks raiding taxpayers for bailout money. And he became the
pitchman for Capital One, which received three point five six
billion of that very same bailout money he decries. He
drones on and on about how Republicans have allegiance to
corporate profitability a gate. Here's a dude who works for
(14:03):
General Electric. His main paycheck General Electric, which in twenty
ten had an effective American tax rate of zero. So
you know, if Alec Baldwin and I don't begrudge anyone
for trying to lower their tax rate. But the problem is,
if you're going to tell us that your decrying tax
cuts for the rich, if you're going to tell us
that you're against the Wall Street of bailiffs, please, you
(14:25):
got to start leading by example and start stuffing your
pocket with taxpayer money or that evil corporate profitability that
you so hate on the blog sphere.
Speaker 1 (14:34):
Jason, how are you on time? Can you stay with
us for another segment?
Speaker 2 (14:37):
Absolutely?
Speaker 1 (14:37):
All right. The book is called Hollywood Hypocritian. I want
to get back to the book. But tell me if
you would when you wrote Obama Zombies your first book?
Is that right?
Speaker 2 (14:48):
That was my first book?
Speaker 1 (14:49):
Yeah, first book. I'm curious because a lot of our
listeners want to get involved. A lot of our listeners
do research. A lot of our listeners write blogs. We
have a woman who writes as a volunteer for a
lot of these blogs. How how did you take that
book and get it published?
Speaker 2 (15:03):
You know, it's a very good question I and it's
hard for me to answer it because I had a
publish or reach out to me.
Speaker 1 (15:10):
And what did you do to get their attention?
Speaker 2 (15:13):
Well, you know, I was very active confronting politicians on
Capitol Hill with cameras, you know, filling the void. That's
the mainstream media, the toolbags and the press were not doing.
And I caught the eye of a publisher and they said,
you are you interested in writing a book? And if so,
do you have any book concepts? And I did. I
had Obama Zombies in my head after the two thousand
and eight election. And you know, it's a growing process
(15:35):
to write a book. It's it's not all glorious. People
think it's you know, I had to give up my
entire social life for about a year to write research
and then promote the book.
Speaker 1 (15:45):
Well, trust me, I've been working on this for a while.
I have a new appreciation. Jason, can you hold with us?
Speaker 2 (15:51):
Yeah? You got all right.
Speaker 1 (15:52):
Jason Mattera is the author of Hollywood Hypocrites. He's the
national editor of Human Events. Was also the author of
Obama Zombies. We're going to talk to him the next
chapter I Love Be Healthy or else. How Hollywood loons
follow deer leaders lead in lusting to regulate what we
do buy and eat. Stay tuned how Michael Larry shows
(16:16):
Fax number three hundred and seventy two liberals contain toxins.
Therefore they cleanse yes return that energy to Earth. So
Father Gore may power himself. Say what Hollywood has no shame,
as noted in the book Hollywood Hypocrites. So chapter eight,
Jason be healthy or else? I love this how Hollywood
(16:38):
loons follow deer leaders lead in lusting to regulate what
we do buy and eat.
Speaker 2 (16:43):
Yeah, absolutely, we already know Michelle Obama right. She likes
to wag her organic fingers in our faces and even
put our kids. I mean, this is scary. You actually
put our kids on fat scales. They want to institute
what's called body mass in the reports to accompany great reports,
which yeah, is exactly what fact kids need for their
(17:05):
self esteem. It's gonna be told that they have three chins.
But here's where the hypocrisy comes in. If Michelle Obauma
really wanted to lecture the rest of America on how
we should eat, First of all, her husband shouldn't be
caught wolfing down chili dogs every time he's away from her.
But more importantly, the biggest, the biggest, you can say,
(17:25):
advocacy for fried foods and salty snacks and all those
sugary items that we know aren't good for us. They're
actually through product placements in movies. I mean, we know
this from multiple years of data research. So that's why
you have lazed potato chips and you know M and
M's and all these fast food joints for or sugary
(17:45):
items where they'll companies they'll they'll place big bucks into
these movies and that will increase consumerism for those products. Now, hey,
I love the sugary items, but if she's gonna wag
her finger, she should wag it at and wrap the
movie industry for allowing these ads to be taking place.
But you know what, they're never gonna do that, Michael.
(18:06):
Why because of the cast flow. The movie industry makes
millions and millions of dollars through these ad billions of
dollars through these advertisements, and then they're able to fund
that right to the Obama campaign. The two biggest bumblers
for the Obama campaign are Hollywood movie executives.
Speaker 1 (18:22):
Wow, Jason Mattera, The book is Hollywood Hypocrites. Chapter nine,
Be peaceful or I'll shoot your ass. Why leftists do
not good violence spokespersons make you note the quote by
Barack Obama. They bring a knife to the fight, We
bring a gun. You know, It's interesting because this morning
I played some of these audio files of people and
(18:44):
hold on just to say, this is a good little
reminder of exactly what we're dealing with. You see, if
I can find me, Oh, here we are Montel Williams.
Speaker 4 (18:53):
So Michelle slight your rest, g alhead. Why not if
you want to go where you are or or you know,
it's all a better thing. Move that knife up about
two feet.
Speaker 1 (19:04):
That's nice, isn't it all right at the collar bone?
Or Mike malloy talking about uh about the Bush Press
Secretary Dana Perino.
Speaker 3 (19:14):
I used to have violence fantasies about uh, Scott McClellan
because of the impenetrable wall of idiocy and supposed ignorance
some of which was probably not supposed, that behind which
he used to hide at every press conference. All those
(19:34):
feelings are being shifted now to Dana Perino violence fantasies,
and I don't like I don't like it when I
get violence fantasies, because you know, I've tried my whole
life to overcome the idea that violence does anything except
cause more violence. But kind of a just hard.
Speaker 1 (19:53):
I love this paragraph. In fact, the profits of the
entertainment industry are so tolerant, so compassionate, and so desirous
of peace that they will beat your ass if you
dare disagree with them. And God help the conservatives if
and when any act of violence does irrupt, because when
it does, progressives will make sure Sarah Palin, Glenn Back
or Rush Limbaugh gets stuck with the blame.
Speaker 2 (20:15):
Yeah, that's absolutely what happens. You know, I considered whether
or not to include the Montell Williams and the Mike
molloy rants, hateful, hateful, vile rants in my book because
I said, you know what, nobody really knows who these
people are anymore. I mean, Montell Williams has a radio show,
who you know who would have sunk it? It's more
like infomercials that he you know that, In fact, that's
(20:36):
exactly what it is. He gets these infomercials to really
sponsor him from.
Speaker 1 (20:40):
Michael Maloy companies.
Speaker 2 (20:41):
Yeah, Michael, Michel Lloyd. I mean, come on, nobody knows
what hell these people are, but they are dripping with hatred.
You know what's interesting, though, is uh is how all
these rappers who are huge, huge Obama supporters and headline
events for him raise money for him. They're all part
of these Eliminate All War groups. They're all supposed peace activists,
(21:02):
how they and they put out these albums, and you know,
I think they're very talented. Some of their songs I
really really like. But some like Kanye West, who calls
himself a peace activist, right, he's parts of a group's
Eliminated All War. What are his CDs called? My Beautiful,
Dark Twisted Fantasy had female corpses hanging from the ceiling,
Kanye West holding a woman's blood soak the severed head,
(21:24):
women held captive women and nooses. I mean, I talk
about coursing our culture and Obama's fine with these people
associating himself with them and raising money. The funniest I
think was when Obama boasted he had a little Wayne,
and he was listening to Little Wayne, a rapper on
his iPad iPod, and it was at the same time
he said, yeah, listen to Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne was
(21:47):
in serving a sentence in jail for a legal gun possession.
Speaker 1 (21:52):
Are jay Z and the things jay Z has said.
Last thing I'll ask you, Jason Mattero, the book is
Hollywood Hypocrites. Your first chapter is high Hollywood welfare. And
you note a quote from director Michael Corente noting, Hey,
you know what, studio executives, they would shoot a movie
on Mars if they could get a twenty five percent
tax break.
Speaker 2 (22:10):
They absolutely would. They're forward to forty three states that
allow tax subsidies or subsidies directly to movie companies to
encourage film production in that particular state, and they are
total cowpies for taxpayers because they end up costing up
their money sending it to someone like Michael Moore. Literally,
Michael Moore got a check of one million dollars from
(22:32):
the taxpayers in Michigan to help produce Capitalism, a love
story which trashed capitalism. But regardless if a trashed or
didn't trash it, we shouldn't be having to subsidize the
movie production of millionaires. It's crazy, it's absurd, and it's
something that goes on in forty three states. So when
we look at movie producers to where s that come
to mind welfare recipients.
Speaker 1 (22:53):
Well, he certainly shouldn't be execting dollars from these evil
taxpayers that he hates so much. There might have been
some guns and God's folks in there? Who are these
pictures on the front? I can recognize John Travolta. The
devastating truth about Obama's biggest backers. We'll be Goldberg, Spike Lee.
Is that Alec Baldwin, Michael Moore, Kanye West? Is that
(23:14):
Cameron Diaz?
Speaker 2 (23:15):
Correct?
Speaker 1 (23:16):
And then who is the other? Oh? That's Rob Riner. Okay,
it's kind of a it's all in that Barack Obama
hope and change picture. And then who's the last one
there with the dimple mat Matt Damon?
Speaker 2 (23:29):
Excuse me, I'm skim sorry, Leonardo dicapric.
Speaker 1 (23:31):
Oh, there you go. Well, it's all the same.
Speaker 2 (23:33):
They're all the same, but they have massive influence and
we gotta we gotta start taking them on.
Speaker 1 (23:39):
