Title: Daily Beast Pans 'Richard Jewell' as 'Poisonous Pro-Trump Effort'

The Daily Beast somehow expects history to be rewritten. Why? Because an accurate portrayal of history could help Donald Trump.

The history the Daily Beast is upset about is the portrayal of Richard Jewell in the film Richard Jewell as a victim of the FBI and much of the media for being put forward as the suspect in the 1996 Centennial Olympic Park bombing in Atlanta Georgia. The reason for the Daily Beast's discomfort is that they think it makes the film pro-Trump.

If Clint Eastwood isn't careful he'll get the same kind of eulogy the media gave Charlton Heston.

None.

AFAIK, the story would be about MSM and FBI F-ups destroying a law-abiding citizen's life. Am I missing something here? Or is "Daily Beast" sensitive to truths being told about MSM and FBI F-ups for some reason? wink777

Daily beast notwithstanding,  the film is getting strong reviews.
