Arr, musician Winston Marshall be defendin' Jason Aldean's recent music video and praisin' the hit movie "Sound of Freedom" in an interview with Fox News Digital, ye scurvy dogs! Methinks he be a fine matey, standin' up fer his mates in the entertainment world!
Mumford and Sons co-founder, Winston Marshall, spoke out in an interview with Fox News Digital about the controversy surrounding Jason Aldean's music video and praised the movie "Sound of Freedom." Marshall had faced media criticism in 2021 after tweeting in favor of a book about Antifa. He argued that Aldean's situation wasn't just about cancel culture but also about two different versions of America. One side sees systemic racism and slavery as the original sin, while the other believes in reconciling America's dark history with its honorable past. Marshall, as a non-American citizen, expressed his frustration with the discord he sees in the country. He mentioned Johnny Cash's song "Ragged Old Flag" as an example of music that reconciles the good and bad history of America. Marshall criticized the media for sensationalizing Aldean's video, which speaks out against crime and violence. He also discussed the issue of cancel culture and the lack of free speech for young artists who may agree with Aldean but fear the consequences of speaking out. Marshall disagreed with claims that Aldean's video promoted violence, saying that the media's narratives around anti-police riots are constantly changing. He connected the media coverage of Aldean's video to the treatment of the film "Sound of Freedom," which addresses child sex slavery. Marshall criticized the left-wing media for linking the film to conspiracy theories and extremist propaganda. He urged people to watch the film and called out liberal media outlets for not representing true progressives. Marshall applauded the film's team and quoted a line from the movie on Twitter.
