More on the Content Industries and the Election

Blogger Roger Simon says that Bush got 42% of the vote in Beverly Hills versus 57% for Kerry (comparable numbers in 2000 were Bush - 20%; Gore - 77%).

A commenter adds:

Back during the Dem primaries I checked a couple of online databases of political contributions for some local zip codes and then tried some famous ones like 90210. The Beverly Hills, Malibu, and Santa Monica zip codes showed that while a predictable number of actors contributed to Democratic candidates, President Bush received significant financial support from people on the production and business side of the entertainment industry.
Could it be that the assumption of monolithic liberal Hollywood is just another urban legend? That the place is actually crawling with secret Bushites?
