Anti-woke movie guide site gives conservatives alternative to 'Rotten Tomatoes'
'The Five' co-hosts discuss Rep. Cori Bush, D-Mo., arguing at a congressional hearing that being anti-woke is being anti-Black. Hollywood and movie critics have become "predictable" in pursuing a divisive political agenda in films, a conservative film reviewer says, leaving audiences alienated and frustrated. James Carrick, founder of "Worth it or Woke?", told Fox News Digital he decided to create a movie review site that is transparent about its conservative Christian perspective, as an alternative to long-established film rating sites like "Rotten Tomatoes." The site launched in February and has reviews from current films in theaters, streaming series and favorite films that came out years ago which Carrick believes are "worth it" for audiences to see. A film enthusiast with a background in theater and philosophy, Carrick said he hopes his site will help others "vote with their dollars" to avoiding films with woke messages if they choose.
Tech start-up event pulls flier featuring topless robot, lingerie show
The event, called Start-up Mingle, has a networking portion followed by a fashion show. Silicon Valley is reeling from charges of sexism and discrimination. But that didn't stop a tech start-up networking event at San Francisco's swank W Hotel from advertising itself with a poster of a topless female robot and the promise of a "summer seduction lingerie fashion show" to follow. The event, which is scheduled for this weekend, bills itself as a "start-up mingle party" that "mixes tech with fashion." The first hour is set aside for an informal networking and pitch session.
