Ronald Reagan Supported by MCA, Lew Wasserman



embedd
[From article]
A poor boy from a Russian immigrant family, Wasserman grew up in Cleveland, worked as a movie house usher at night, and after getting his high school diploma -- he never went to college -- joined up with what was known as the Mayfield Road Gang, an Italian-led Mafia organization with ties to the Jewish mob -- helping to run a casino.
Moving up the career ladder in Chicago, Wasserman was recruited by founder Jules Stein who saw him as a bright boy with good ideas and made him an MCA talent agent. Stein was well-connected: his MCA was booking bands for the flashy nightclubs and crooked gambling houses run by legendary crime boss Al Capone. By then, Wasserman had taken a wife -- his attorney father-in-law reportedly was a reputed Mob mouthpiece.
In the late '30s, Stein and Wasserman followed the adage of Horace Greeley and went west, setting up shop in the ritzy center of the entertainment industry -- Beverly Hills, around the same time that the Chicago Mob was putting down roots in the movie capital.

EXCLUSIVE: Revealed, how the MAFIA helped Ronald Reagan get to the White House. Shocking documentary reveals Mob connections that catapulted him to the presidency - and how a probe was thwarted at 'the highest levels'
President Reagan owed his acting and political career to Hollywood mogul Lew Wasserman, chief of entertainment behemoth MCA, who was in bed with the Mob
An investigation into the relationship between MCA and the Mafia was halted and Federal prosecutors believe it was one of the 'political favors' that can be traced back to Reagan's White House
'Ronald Reagan is a complete slave of MCA who would do their bidding on anything,' one secret Justice Department document revealed
According to the producer of the documentary, Wages of Spin II: Bring Down The Wall, one MCA executive had ties to Mob boss John Gotti
'Reagan's whole career in politics was subsidized by MCA,' he asserts, and helped him financially because for a long time he was living above his means
The Mob was probably working Nancy Reagan too, according to the producer. 'She was a driving force behind Reagan'

Man Shouts Allah U Akbar, Shoots Pedestrians in Hollywood

The lesson here according to his "friends," is that if events don't go the way you want them to go, get a gun and shoot at random people. The usual lesson is if some one wants to end a relationship get a gun and shoot her. As one astute observer noted, "Why don't they just shoot themselves if they are so unhappy, and save the rest of us from their grief? We have enough of our own."

Most media reports omitted the "shouting Allah U Akbar" part. Wonder why?

Standing poised with their guns trained on his body, this is the moment a gunman's rampage through a Hollywood street came to an end. The man was killed and three others injured, one critically, during the mid-morning incident at the famed Hollywood intersection of Sunset Boulevard and Vine Street. The 26-year-old Hispanic dressed in a white sweat vest, stood in the middle of the road firing on pedestrians and forcing motorists to veer out of the way.
