YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

"The short-listed nominees for the 85th Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature have been announced, and missing from the list is the highest-grossing doc of the year: the conservative 2016: Obama's America.

Naturally, this has some conservatives in a tizzy, including the film's writer and director Dinesh D'Souza.

"I want to thank the Academy for not nominating our film," D'Souza joked to The Hollywood Reporter. He then took a predictable shot at liberal Hollywood and the movies that did get nominated."*

Dinesh D'Souza's conservative propaganda film, "2016: Obama's America" was snubbed by the Academy Awards. Obviously, it's because of liberal bias and not because the film is terrible. At least, that's what D'Souza seems to think. Cenk Uygur, Jimmy Dore (The Jimmy Dore Show), and John Iadarola (Host, TYT University) discuss the latest of D'Souza's antics.
