Spoof Poster of Twilight for the new Muppet Movie.
Do you want your kids to believe in communism? Well, that's what a Fox Business anchor thinks the new Muppets movie is out to do.
Fox Business anchor Eric Bolling insists that Disney's newest edition to Jim Henson's long loved muppet series is the newest edition of Hollywood propaganda against consumerism and capitalism because the film's antagonist is an oil baron.

"It's amazing how far the left will go just to manipulate your kids, to convince them, give the anti-corporate message," he said.
Personally, I find that to be totally ridiculous since 1) Disney is one of the largest examples of consumerism and capitalism, and 2) it's a children's movie for goodness sake. That's like saying Beauty and the Beast is promoting Stockholm Syndrome rather than being for pure entertainment purposes.
It's the entertainment industry. They pick up themes from news around them, because that's what draws sales. Bolling obviously never took that into account.
Apparently the film does not hit on the good that has come from oil use and drilling, but again IT'S A CHILDREN'S MOVIE. The demographic for the movie is probably between the ages of three and 10. Not everything is made for adults, or is it possible that he thought "The Muppets" were growing up when he did?
