Abe Foxman Joe Eszterhas Judah Maccabee Mel Gibson Sean Hannity The Passion of the Christ

September 8th, 2011

Mel Gibson is set to produce a movie about Jewish hero, Judah Maccabee.

The actor and director, who went on a drunken anti-Semitic rant during a 2006 arrest in Malibu, is teaming up with “Basic Instinct” screenwriter Joe Eszterhas to tell the story of the Maccabee family, whose revolt against the tyrannical King Antiochus and reconsecration of the Jewish Temple is told on the holiday of Hanukkah.

A rep for Gibson confirms to Gossip Cop that he’s set to produce the heroic tale and possibly direct it as well.

Christina Aguilera Conan O'Brien Sarah Palin Sean Hannity Time US Weekly

February 10th, 2011

Another major media outlet is treating a parody Sarah Palin “interview” about Christina Aguilera as though it is real.

As Gossip Cop reported yesterday, after a satirical site wrote an article in which the former Alaska governor blasts Aguilera’s bungled national anthem performance during a supposed “radio interview” with Sean Hannity, Us Weekly ran the fabricated remarks as authentic.

Now it looks like Time magazine did the same thing.

Christina Aguilera Sarah Palin Sean Hannity US Weekly

February 9th, 2011

This is really bad.

Us Weekly has published what it claims are comments made by Sarah Palin, in which the former vice presidential candidate blasts Christina Aguilera’s performance of the national anthem at Super Bowl XLV.

Except the over-the-top “quotes,” which Us Weekly attributes to a Monday radio interview with Sean Hannity, were written for a satire website.
