Sony Hosted Obama Fundraiser, Releasing Bin Laden Movie Before Election

As Donald Rumsfeld would say...."My Goodness..."

There may be an overtly political ( No Really!?!?!?) reason that moviegoers will be seeing the story of the Osama bin Laden raid just before they vote for president. Sony Pictures, the company distributing next year's film, hosted a fundraiser for Barack Obama on their studio's premises in California last April. So far, Sony is the only major studio to hold a political fundraiser this cycle. According to Deadline Hollywood, Sony will release the bin Laden movie, directed by Academy Award-winning director Kathryn Bigelow, on October 12, 2012--less than a month before the presidential election."
