Hollywood Execs Apologize for Nasty Sony Emails That Were Leaked

Angelina Jolie and her highly anticipated 'Unbroken' may have been shut out at the Golden Globe nominations, but she was still in the Hollywood spotlight Thursday, following the latest in a series of leaked emails in the Sony hacking scandal that calls the actress and director a 'spoiled brat.' Scott Rudin, the high-powered producer who made the 'spoiled brat' comment, in addition to an email exchange with Sony Pictures Entertainment co-chairman Amy Pascal about President Barack Obama's presumed taste in movies, apologized Thursday, as did Pascal. The two joked about which films the President might enjoy, referencing 'Lee Daniels' The Butler,' 'Think Like a Man' and 'Ride Along' -- all films with primarily African American casts. Controversy swelled in the long-playing Sony scandal when hacked email exchanges obtained by the website Gawker gave the public an unfiltered glimpse into the way Hollywood often does business: down and dirty, with scant mincing of words. 'You can't hold people responsible on how they conduct (emailing) in private or between colleagues, unless they're doing something illegal,' Ricky Gervais told the AP.
