Republican: Scripts need reviewing

Raleigh | Citing the controversy surrounding the Dakota Fanning film Hounddog, the leader of the state Senate Republicans says he wants the government to review scripts before cameras start rolling in North Carolina.

That system, said state Sen. Phil Berger, R-Rockingham, would apply only to films seeking the state’s lucrative filmmaker incentive, which refunds as much as 15 percent of what productions spend in North Carolina from the state treasury.

“Why should North Carolina taxpayers pay for something they find objectionable?” said Berger, who is having proposed legislation drafted.

Hey, here’s a better question. Why should North Carolina taxpayers be paying for people to make a movie in North Carolina in the first place?

This is the kind of thinking that kills liberty where instead of solving the obvious problem of simply not paying people to make movies in the State politicians want to just slap another regulation on the books for bureaucrats to enforce.
