Vocal Point-Ted Baehr

Topic: Cancel Culture and Celebrities

Ted Baehr, publisher of MOVIEGUIDE, wrote an article entitled,”10 Surprising Celebs Who Have Rebuked Cancel Culture.” Baehr notes, “The decision to ‘cancel’ someone because they express a different opinion now appears to be a hallmark among social media users. But that doesn’t mean the response is an acceptable — or mature — way to handle disagreement. Unfortunately, culture’s obsession with cancellation is so detrimental that even liberal celebs are encouraging people to put on the breaks.” Included in his article are quotes from Alec Baldwin, Ricky Gervais, Sharon Stone, Bill Maher, and even Mr. Bean, Rowan Atkinson. Ted Baehr joins Jerry Newcombe on Vocal Point to discuss these wise observations from an unlikely source. www.movieguide.com
