This is a rare opportunity to use my old tag "charming bad logic."Jane Fonda on her “Block the Merger” pin, saying that she “slept with the guy” who created CNN and doesn’t want to see the network owned by Paramount.

And I enjoyed the garbled articulation: "The murders are going to be bad for workers."

We want political control…
Thar she blows. Now that we’ve agreed on what you are…

LOL it’s rough to feel your boney fingers losing their grip on the msm. Seems she needed a few cocktails to weather the coming realignment.
“I slept with the guy” is the perfect summary for the left’s sense of entitlement to rule over the news.
Charming bad logic?
Brought to you from: nepo baby, Hanoi Jane pointing guns at US planes, profiteer selling knee-damaging high-step aerobics products, defender of Greta Tunbergian nonsense, plus a proponent of every Hollywood virtue fad.
Not "charming" bad logic at all. Leading impressionable lemmings to destruction logic.
I managed to watch the Conan open. The vibe I got was they wanted to roast their political enemies but had the sads because nobody was going to see them do it. I think I heard Conan’s voice break when he told the self deprecating joke about the movie audience leaving. The audience had belly laughs at his punchlines before that one that was met with a mix of silence and nervous laughter. They know they screwed themselves…
Ted’s not in good shape. He was a character. Liked his women crazy…
Maybe Jane could sleep with Ellison and he would leave CNN alone.
Her spocks brain performance in barbarella was the height of her intellect
Jane is still here?
Her deal with the devil demands it
What is it about leftist women that makes them think getting d*cked by a famous dude makes their opinions special?
I'm not talking about the attention, fawning or otherwise, that often goes with being the paramour of somebody noteworthy but, as the quote suggests, letting him grab you gives you some special insight.
(revised and extended to clarify)
Don't mean to be ageist, but Jane is 88 and it shows in the video clip.
MELANIA awarded inaugural FIFA Best Documentary Award
If the Hollywood studios (other than Paramount) don’t want to become nationalized by our administration, they will re-award all of the Oscars to MELANIA. ~ Brendan Carr (likely)
CNN is anachronistic. Modern days need something like a streaming international news channel.

The age gap goes the wrong way for that to be effective.
Two best movies
Barbarella for costumes and lack thereof
China Syndrome for nuclear safety posiviity (a zillion bad things happen and the plant shuts down safely)

She did more than sleep with Ted, she got him to marry Gere.
Does she own any cnn stock? Magic 8 ball (grok) says she used to but doesn't currently

Whore Power!
Can Jane Fonda get hit by a bus? I don't want to be on death bed reading what 100 y/o Jane said about the current President in 2037. She's always been stupid, borderline mentally ill, and full of hate for the white working class. A perfect wife for Ted Turner.
The idea that she knows the details of the merger or truly cares is absurd. CNN is far-left now, and will stay far-left. The only change will be a move to more Zionism. The head of AIPAC will be able to watch it without being annoyed.
I slept with the guy. Instead of I married the guy. Always vulgar & low class. And an attention whore.
Hanoi Jane should go live in Ho Chi Minh City.
I didn't watch the video, because the freeze frame picture of Jane with her tongue poking out is too perfect. It shows the vacuous concentration of an old age home resident looking for crumbs from the fried shrimp.

…my immediate thought was: Ken L Ration dog…and now it’s yours, too…
She needs more cowbell.
Most of her career is horrible, but I still love Klute.
I saw the headline and the picture and thought she was talking about the dress and its designer. That might have been a more interesting story.
I think that might be Joe Biden in drag. Watch it with that thought in mind and you will see.
Don't bother with Barbarella, watch CQ instead.
(Roman Coppola's one great movie. The Coppola kids each had one).
yeah I saw that some years ago,
I dislike that woman intensely and resent her being considered a feminist icon. She spent much of her adult life just adapting herself into the identity of whatever man she was with at the time. I heard her interviewed years ago and realized she had serious daddy issues, which colored everything she said and did. Not someone for women to emulate.
Saint Croix, thanks, I'm going to look that one up.
The reason Klute was such a good movie was more due to Donald Sutherland's low-key performance, than to Fonda's riffing off it.
When you saw Henry Fonda in Once Upon a Time in the West, I think you saw his essential coldness. It only peeks out from time to time in his other characters, and only in flashes. But I've read that it had a huge impact on both Jane and Peter.
perhaps, he was always very earnest in a whole variety of films
he was playing the villain in that one, if memory serves,
“ I heard her interviewed years ago and realized she had serious daddy issues, which colored everything she said and did. Not someone for women to emulate.”
Apparently Hank, her father, was quite cold to his kids, and her, in particular, concentrating on his acting, and his women. He was, by far, the best actor of the Fonda family (though I do like his granddaughter’s work). Her first couple of husband’s apparently emotionally abused her, to the extent that she went nude in several (?) movies. Did this to get the male approval that her father never gave her. Something like that.
Hanoi Jane should go live in Ho Chi Minh City.
Not sure Jane would be all that welcome in Saigon (Fuck you, Ho).
Political window dressing aside, Saigon (and DaNang and ...)
are now capitalism on steroids. I have friendly relationships with a dozen or so Vietnamese - all from the south; some born here, some there.
All of them will tell you that the people in the south and north of the country are not the same. When I talk about my long-ago time there and plans to go back, they make no secret of approving my south-only itinerary. One went so far to say,
"If you go to Hanoi, watch-out up there."
She cares about “the workers” from her stretched perch in the hunger games
