I wish I could find an objective accounting of how culpable the newspapers actually were and how accurate the AJC attack on the movie's depiction of the female reporter is.

Any ideas?

So how accurate is the portrayal by Olivia Wilde? Radio was discussing it this morning and how the AJC has all but ruined this movie.

Not sure what's true? A movie that takes liberties or a media that destroyed the character of Jewell trying to keep this movie from exposing their dirty past. Guessing there is truth mixed in from both.

Thank you! That article also refers back to the original article upon which the film is based. I'll read that, too.

The guy playing Richard Jewell is an LCMS Lutheran.

That's it, that's all I have to contribute to this thread.

LCMS REPRESENT!

Tanks at the Box Office

The very press who destroyed Jewell is trying to destroy the movie

That's a shame. Saw it two nights ago at the theatre and it was pretty full. Really enjoyed it. No surprise the dumb ass media is trying to torpedo it. These people are shameless and are frankly pond scum.

CNN is an enemy of the state and should be treated as such.

I watched this last night and enjoyed it.

The guy who played Jewell, Sam Rockwell, and Kathy Bates were excellent. Lots of fun to watch them work.

Am I doomed always to see Jon Hamm as Don Draper?

Saw it today - excellent movie. FBI tactics are shameful.

He melts into his role in Death of Stalin but I tend to think the same way.
