QuikQuote: Legendary Hollywood producer Robert Evans (Chinatown, Urban Cowboy) and former Paramount studio honcho has come to the defense of besieged DISNEY CEO Michael Eisner in a nearly 5000-word rollicking screed exclusively obtained by the DRUDGE REPORT.
Evans argues that a well-orchestrated PR campaign to overthrow Eisner by Walt Dinsey nephew Roy Disney is 'reminiscent of Goebels propagating the heroics of Adolf Hitler.'


And if you don't know what "Putsch" is...

So A) this is the Robert Evans (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0263172/) of "Kid Notorious (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0379638/)" (funny!) and B) he's brought Hitler into it, thereby invoking Godwin's Law immediately.

Well, it is a full moon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_moon) tonight.

I think Eisner is copying the Karl Rove model of propaganda and hate wars - don't get involved yourself - have your "friends" do it as leverage against your negative press. They can say whatever they want because they are removed from the actual focal point (Swift boat, the new Anti-AARP group, etc.) and then Eisner can deny any involvement.
