'Red America' gets the blues over left-leaning Oscars

AFP reports:

The divide between conservative and liberal America was on full display at the
Oscars, with both the winners and losers championing social and political topics heralded by the left.


Across the United States, in blogs and on call-in radio talk shows, conservatives seethed that their point of view was not represented in the choice films honored with nominations -- let alone among those given awards.

"This year's Oscar nominees include stories of homosexual sheep herders, a transvestite and Japanese prostitutes," the conservative Concerned Women for America (CWA) lamented on its website.

The Oscars celebrated the minor films that most didn't see.
