Mom, Fidel's Being Evil Again!
I find HBO’s decision to postpone the airing of Oliver Stone’s documentary on Fidel Castro to be kinda silly. I mean, you do this documentary on an evil dictator, and then a month before broadcast, said evil dictator starts cracking down on the people in his country and stuff. All of a sudden HBO gets cold feet, as if they were saying: “Oh my God, this guy really is evil!”
Well, no shit, Sherlock. Was HBO thinking they were doing a documentary on Mother Teresa?
Evil dictators do evil stuff. If you aren’t prepared for the possibility that the evil dictator may actually do evil, maybe you shouldn’t do a documentary about an evil dictator.
