I think James Franco was cancelled for something, I don't care enough to look it up. But surely Franco has better options than a Daily Wire movie if he wants to act or needs money.

    Hirsch is also a shithead. He came up behind a female executive at a bar, put her in a chokehold, dragged her across a table, then pinned her to the ground with both hands around her neck. All because she disagreement with him earlier on set. And instead of talking about it, decided to assault her when she wasn't even able to see it coming.

    For this, Hirsht paid less than $5,000 in fines, spent 2 weeks in jail, and did 40ish hours of community service. Even though this was attempted murder. AFAIK the victim had permanent injuries, too.

    So cool you can just randomly try and kill women you don't like in public, just say you're "sorry everyone feels that way" and get a short timeout to think about what you've done (or rather, how this might impact your career).

    Makes sense, there is like a ~80% chance that some Hollywood person getting canceled involves SA/pedophile shit.

    and 100% if that person is on a daily wire production. seriously it's like their mission statement to rehabilitate people who were canceled for good reason (although I suppose it's also a money-saving measure)
