Denzel Washington just said what is on the minds of millions

this was just refreshing to hear and see. video in the link.

Last week, on the red carpet for his new film Fences, he was asked about the phenomenon of fake news and in particular a fake news story regarding him (it claimed he’d switched his election support from Clinton to Trump). Denzel masterfully turned the question back on the reporter.

Asked what he made of it, he said: “If you don’t read the newspaper you’re uninformed. If you do read it you’re misinformed.”

Well done Denzel, an amazing human being.

I have always loved me some Denzel.

Absolutely brilliant!

Denzel's a wise man as well as one of our greatest actors

Simply but powerfully stated

The uninformed vote democrat, the misinformed republican.

Or, wait, is it the other way around?

I heard it once described another way... we have the party of no ideas versus the party of dumb ideas.

Wow, that is a spot on crystallization of my thoughts.

Gotta love Denzel.

I think we can all agree on his comments.

Ugh, really? Here we're acknowledging intelligence and a smart comment. Nevermind... What's the point?

LMFAO!!! I know right?! But Hey, Denzel is a helluva Guy.
Good Thread OP!!

(Hey DogStar, I see IL, in Your stats.
We are near Moline, and across the Mississippi River is Davenport Iowa...)

Right on

I don't think the MSM is going to take much time to share that comment.

What's the point of what? I think you misunderstood then...

I'm merely quoting him from one of my favorite movies, and sharing another moment of wisdom from him. What's wrong with that?

Wow. Hadn't seen that. Thank you!!
