In a Jan. 19 NewsBusters post noting that the "ideal slate of Oscar candidates" compiled by New York Times movie critics was heavy on "Brokeback Mountain," Clay Waters commented: "No liberal conventional wisdom here!" Waters added that the critics "have revealed liberal sympathies in their film critiques," presumably for their praise for "Brokeback Mountain."
Has it ever occurred to Waters that "Brokeback Mountain" may actually be a good movie, and that he is merely displaying his own "conservative sympathies" by criticizing anyone who praises the film because the film's subject matter makes him feel all icky inside?
