Dennis Prager on Hollywood Silence Over Israel
Dennis Prager argues Hollywood remains silent on Israel amid public stances on other issues. He calls for moral accountability, cites Rob Reiner and Barbra Streisand as examples, and labels the silence a stain on Hollywood’s moral record while noting Jewish figures’ silence influences broader non Jewish actors. He adds his background as syndicated radio host and author.
