A circulating JTA story reports on an independent poll that concludes in spite of the spaz surrounding Gibson’s “The Passion of the Christ,” the film has actually changed gentile attitudes towards Jews’ historical role for the better. San Francisco-based Jewish & Community Research found that people were “less likely” to blame the Jews for Jesus’ crucifixion than previous polls by ABC and Gallup. Whew, that’s relief. Now if Mel would make a movie about the supposed Jewish domination of the entertainment industry, we could blame somebody else for the schlock coming out of Hollywood.
