Dear Ms Gorani and Mr De Niro, Thank you Ms Gorani, and please thank your colleagues and the CNN Contributors for your excellent work in getting the truth out there. Our hearts go out for your numerous fallen colleagues in a world where the freedom of speech is fighting for its existence. No-one can imagine what it must be like to be gunned down for reporting the facts. Thank you Mr De Niro for your wonderful films that have helped make American cinema the pinnacle of excellence in motion pictures. Some of your performances are etched in the back of my mind, because of how good they were played by you and your fellow actors. I am sure you mean well in your scathing criticism of President Trump, but I must ask you to stand down. You’re an artist and artists are able to create and perform and bring light to the dark corners of this troubled world. But when you use expletives to describe how you feel about a sitting president, it backfires because you are a great artist. You lose stature in the world’s eyes, because it does not match your wit. It diminishes your incredible talent, because it comes off as a bad performance and it will remain in cyberspace long after we have left the world. It cheapens your profession. You see Mr De Niro, you are also a light to up and coming artists across the whole spectrum of the arts. You cannot and must not go public about your inner most feelings about a sitting president of The United States of America. Please, just do the SNL, the effect of your performance is a thousand times stronger than getting up and cursing President Trump for the whole world to see. Thank you and happy holidays to you and the CNN staff.
