Fox studios put faith in Christian film fare / Video unit to make up to dozen per year: "(09-20) 04:00 PDT Hollywood -- The company that brought TV viewers racy and irreverent programs such as 'Nip/Tuck,' 'Temptation Island' and 'The Simpsons' has found religion.
In the biggest commitment of its sort by a Hollywood studio, News Corp.'s Fox Filmed Entertainment announced plans Tuesday to capture the gargantuan Christian audience that made 'The Passion of the Christ' a global phenomenon.
Fox Home Video, the home entertainment division of Rupert Murdoch's movie studio, plans to produce or distribute as many as a dozen films a year under a new banner called FoxFaith. At least six of these films will be released in theaters under an agreement with two of the nation's largest chains, AMC Theatres and Carmike Cinemas. The rest will go directly to DVD."
Does everyone remember when the first President Bush condemend Fox because of the Simpsons? Now they lick republican butt.
It's all about the money. Fox doesn't care as long as they make the long green. Soon you'll see them spin off an Al-Jazeera clone to market to Muslims.
