B-Man Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Jussie Smollett runs from the press after being released from jail on $100K bond From Coen Brothers script........Last page Jessie runs down the street with the press in hot pursuit , rounding the corner he ducks into a store and stands up the wall. Camera shows his viewpoint as reporters race by the window. Jessie heaves a sigh of relief as the last one passes. He slowly turns toward the rest of the establishment and notices that it is a Subway. Close up slowly moves in on his face as a small "Mona Lisa" smile emerges. Fade Out.................. . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 My favorite take so far. Quote I would never be brave enough to do what Jussie did. He put his personal freedom at stake and shined a light into some dark corners that need cleaning. In a way, I’m proud of him. Because it doesn’t necessarily matter that this event didn’t happen. It matters that it could happen. That’s the real issue here. So good for Jussie. The Root is awesome. I'm not sure I could have made that up myself. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedge Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 My bet is that one of his deleted phone calls was with someone, in panic mode, who yelled "TELL THEM IT WAS BECAUSE YOU WERE DISSATISFIED WITH YOUR EMPIRE SALARY!" Chicago police Superintendent said Smollett faked a threatening letter and then, a week later, staged the attack because he was “dissatisfied with his salary” on “Empire.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the fact that he set it up to happen in the view of a security camera, but when his buddies were smacking him around, the camera didn’t catch it. HAHA! Can we do a re-take?!

meazza Posted February 22, 2019 Share Posted February 22, 2019 On 2/20/2019 at 1:08 PM, DC Tom said: There has to be some intelligence threshold, given that a "hoax" requires a formed intent to deceive. The moon landing, 9/11, Gwenyth Paltrow winning an Oscar, Nutella being edible...all are "hoaxes" in that They actively engaged in a disinformation campaign designed to mislead the public (e.g. we never landed on the moon, the Twin Towers are still there, Gwenyth Paltrow has all the acting range of wilted celery, and Nutella is basically congealed motor oil). I'll admit it's a low minimum level of intelligence, to formulate the intent to deceive. And it doesn't take the brain power of a Harvey Weinstein or...the inventor of Nutella, whoever that ####### is - to conceive and perpetrate a hoax. But I submit that the failure to understand that reflections in mirrors are reversed is below that minimum. Nutella was invented by Ferrero.
