::::Peter, the two sources I posted are not contradictory. In the NYPost one, there is a quote (which I placed in the references) where Silver ''himself'' said in a radio interview that he felt he was being blacklisted. And Deadline Hollywood, while it may look like a blog, is written by a journalist who was a former contributor to a major newspaper before going freelance. She has many connections in the movie industry and has broken numerous stories before most newspapers get even a whiff of what's going on. These are both credible sources, both of which mention the well-known fact that Silver was blacklisted, something which the major liberal newspapers refuse to acknowledge due to their ties to liberal Hollywood.

::::Your counterargument seems to be counting the [[quantity]] not [[quality]] of his roles after 2004. Firstly, your oft-cited example of "The West Wing" is irrelevant -- according to IMDb<ref>http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0798779/filmoseries#tt0200276</ref> he had been a regularly occurring character since 2001 and may have had a contract for regular appearances. Since 2004, he had a leading role in the no-name ''Red Mercury'' (2005), a supporting role in ''Find Me Guilty'' (2006), a role in the '''religious''' comedy ''The Ten'' (2007), a made-for-TV movie ''Xenophobia'' (2008), an unreleased 2008 production and four cameos on television programs. This list implies fairly clearly that he had to find roles through alternate avenues (the few conservatives working in Hollywood) or stoop to roles in B-movies and TV movies. This, in comparison to major Hollywood productions such as ''Ali'', ''Reversal of Fortune'' and the action flick ''Timecop''. All the evidence points to the fact that he was, sadly, blacklisted by those great "promoters" of equality, Hollywood. -[[User:Foxtrot|Foxtrot]] 09:50, 20 March 2009 (EDT)
