22179, film after film?

The only other examples of outrage towards Lee's films are with Do The Right Thing and when he took Malcolm X from Norman Jewison. Only he has to put up with it? what about Ron Howard accused of covering up John Nash's anti-semitism? Eastwood being accused of promoting euthenasia? Mel Gibson accused of blaming Jews for the death of Jesus? and Scorsese is attacked for portraying Italians negatively all the time.
Where was the outrage about The 25th Hour? She Hate Me? Clockers? He Got Game? THERE WAS NONE. and there usually isn't.
A guy who everyone hates is not hired as a Nike spokesperson, a member of the NYU faculty, and they do not get their name on the posters of their films.
