EDITORIAL: POLITICAL SATIRE — MEET THE FLOCKERS
Unfortunately, this comedy is real. It doesn’t star Robert De Niro, Ben Stiller, or Dustin Hoffman—and the voters are paying for the tickets.
In Meet the Fockers, getting into the “circle of trust” was everything. In this version. In our version, you vote for what you want, and the cast delivers what they wanted. Apparently, public input didn’t make it past the audition. by @doingitlocal
