Not a Fan: Robert Redford

Posted by Chris | Filed under Not a Fan, Utah

A friend of mine pointed this article out to me. It is a summary of an interview with Robert Redford. Seems pretty stereotypical to me. Despite that he is married to a Mormon, let alone employs many many of them.

Excerpt:

“(Mormons) are very adept at not being fazed and speaking fluently and gracefully. Why? Because every single male who’s a Mormon goes on a mission for two years when they’re 19 or 20. … They learn how to deflect blows and stay on message. No wonder Utah is the place that all these Republican senators go. It’s perfect. So when you see Mitt Romney, he’s already practicing how to deflect blows and stay on message. But it’s plastic.”

I find it unfortunate that he cannot get his facts right. Despite living here.

Thanks to Chris Hicks for a great summary on this topic.
