    Okay, this is not exactly Wall Street news.

    But worth a look.

    There are very few actors or directors who can basically tell Apple to **** their **** and not be concerned about it hurting their career.

    De Niro is one of them. The guy is OG.

    I like De Niro but this is like Sammy Sosa saying he used steroids long after he retired. If he said this to Hollywood studios after he did Raging Bull it would have more meaning. But of course he would have been banished like Elia Kazan after he ratted out his communist friends during the HUAC hearings.

    Some should ask DeNiro how he feels about censorship.

    If he had said what to Hollywood studios?

    Raging Bull was made in 1980. That was a long time after the HUAC hearings, and it was a long time before the Trump presidency.

    What would you have liked to hear De Niro talk about in 1980?

    He should stick to acting.. Multi millionaire’s actors like to bash large companies just to make thelmselvea look good in spite of actors being sone of the most greedy people in the world.
