Big Opportunity For Radio People

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

Big Opportunity For Radio People

Post by genlock »

Gov. Joe Manchin and the president of the United Mine Workers took offense Tuesday to a planned scene from an upcoming film that stereotypes West Virginians as inbred.


The horror thriller "Shelter,'' which stars Julianne Moore, is recruiting extras with unusual physical features for a scene in a West Virginia "holler,'' according to the statement from Donna Belajac Casting of Pittsburgh.


The casting call said the film is looking for extras who are extraordinarily tall or short, those with unusual body shapes and unusual facial features, especially eyes, and even people with physical abnormalities as long as they have normal mobility.
"Everyone Should be aware that you're just a screen grab away from infamy."

Poor Manchin must be conflicted - there's a camera there, and his instinct will be to jump in front of it. But in doing so, he will be auditioning for that which he is campaigning against.
So sayeth His Royal Highness King Spike; greatest broadcasting talent of his generation.

Shelly Moore Capito should be first in line.
