…But They’ll Never Take Our Freedom

At last night’s New York premiere of _A Mighty Heart_ Angelina Jolie’s lawyer made all reporters sign an agreement stating that they would not ask any personal questions.

“FoxNews”:http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,282173,00.html reports that “the agreement also required that ‘the interview may only be used to promote the Picture. In no event may Interviewer or Media Outlet be entitled to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story. …The interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning, or derogatory to Ms. Jolie.’ If that wasn’t enough, Jolie also requires that if any of these things happen, ‘the tape of the interview will not be released to Interviewer.'”

Of course, Angie has the right to her privacy, but all this rigamarole from the star of a movie about “freedom of speech”:http://www.amightyheartmovie.com/… whose NY premiere was to support “Reporters Without Borders”:http://www.rsf.org/rubrique.php3?id_rubrique=20. The media just can’t seem to “get a break”:http://heebmagazine.com/blog/view/130.

    Why are they kissing her

    Yeah maybe, so why can’t she say something like that when a reporter asks her a personal question? Why does she need to have lawyers craft a contract for them to not ask the questions? Who does she think she is telling the press what questions they can an
