Matt Damon anti-fracking movie financed by oil-rich United Arab Emirates

Matt Damon anti-fracking movie financed by oil-rich United Arab Emirates. It’s always a conundrum for Hollywood leftists when their anti-Americanism collides with their anti-capitalism. For Mr. Damon the issue was resolved by using foreign oil money to create a propaganda film attacking the energy extraction method which threatens to make America energy independent.

  • Can you completely boycott someone any more then this sniveling colon bandit? I'm open to ideas here.

  • Saturday Night Live used to do SPOOFS about this kind of thing!!!
    Anyone remember the "Texxon" PSA warning about the dangers of de-controlling natural gas prices? The little girl in the hospital bed -- "Please, don;t let them pull the plug on me!" and the black guy whose college scholarship is via Texxon, and if they have to pull it -- "I'll be back out on the streets -" (scowls into camera) "and I'll be mad."

  • Fracking has employed many people in North Dakota and has helped to give us a $1.6 billion dollar budget surplus. One of the oil developers has given millions of dollars for the University of North Dakota to expand its geology department. What we need now is for the Keystone Pipeline to be built!!

    • Another liberal star who gets a bug in his ear by some pencil neck geek and decides to become an activist for something he knows nothing about. Matt should be fracked....What pisses me off with this administration is every time we find a new way to make things work, American ingenuity, some pansy ass liberal starts screaming the sky is falling..I one for one am tired of paying these bastards in the middle east for oil so they can use it to attack us..

      I came from North Dakota, funny how this little state run by conservatives is the only one to have a billion plus budget surplus, low crime and decent people..They ought to make the leaders of states like New York and Kalifornia spend a year in North Dakota to see how to do things right....On second thought they would just bring their liberal crap with them and screw up that state.

      KAlifornia has a shitload of oil but we can't go after it cause the environazi's don't want to spoil the state...so we will remain broke and stupid until all the taxpayers leave and we become a third world country with pirates and drug lords and welfare collectors..all paying 8 bucks a gallon for "blended" gas so we don't pollute this shit hole...

  • Come on entertainment press. Just one tough question to Damon about this. I'll even give you an example: Is it hypocrisy that this movie attacking the American energy industry is financed by Middle Eastern oil concerns? Here's a second: Do you think the financers of this movie have an agenda?
