Does anyone else think that this guy is full of shit? I caught some clips of his interview with Diane Sawyer and he kept going on about how he's suffering and struggling with the disease of alcoholism. (I wouldn't be surprised if he makes a comment about how the media has crucified his reputation.) Then he kept reiterating that the alcohol was to blame for the anti-semite remarks he made last summer. (Now, is blaming the beverage the equivelant of taking responsibility for your actions/words? I don't think so.)
And then he said he's been sober for 50 some odd days, but back on Oct. 5th, this report was released:
New York, Actor-director Mel Gibson, who sought help for his alcoholism just two months ago, was seen drinking again in Austin, Texas.
According to contactmusic.com, a source said: "I couldn't believe my eyes. Gibson was swigging a Bud with two adoring young women hanging on his every word."
The source added that there were about 75 people at the bar but Gibson and his friends had some space for themselves. Another source confirmed and said: "He definitely was drinking Budweiser. I saw him."
Gibson was arrested in July for drunk driving and launching into an anti-Semitic rant at his arresting officers. He was in Texas for the screening of his new movie "Apocalypto".
I feel like this interview with Diane is more of a PR stunt for his soon to be released film, "Apocalypto", and I don't think he's changed his opinion on Jews, I just think he's backpeddling.
