Myth->Stereotype that Hollywood is run by Jews
I don't see the [[anti-semitism]] of this. If it *is* there, it's drowned out by the anti-smut message. --[[User:Ed Poor|Ed Poor]] 13:51, 18 April 2007 (EDT)

==the myth that Hollywood is run by Jews==
I'm softening this to "stereotype," because the word "Hollywood" is frequently associated with the heyday of the "studio system," roughly 1920 through 1950, a period during which I think it is literally true that the studio heads (the "moguls") ''were'' predominantly Jewish, mostly Jewish immigrants. Certainly Goldwyn, the Warner brothers, Mayer, Zukor, and Columbia's Harry Cohn were. About the only obvious exceptions I can think of were Walt Disney and Twentieth-Century Fox's Darryl F. Zanuck.
