David Mamet Defends Felicity Huffman In Elite College Scandal

It's always good to have true friends.  It seems based on a report from MSN Entertainment.com that Felicity Huffman has a loyal friend in award winning writer, David Mamet.  Huffman is one of many celebrities at the center of the elite college bribery scandal.

MSN writes

Mamet blamed Huffman’s alleged role in the admissions scheme on “a parent’s zeal for her children’s future” and called the situation “unfortunate.” He added that he’s worked “in and around our Elite Universities” for many years and their admissions policies are a “corrupt joke.”

In fact, Mamet wrote a detailed open letter about his love of both Huffman and her husband Bill Macy, "I'm crazy about them." Mamet letter first focused on the problems with admissions policies.

I worked for very many years in and around our Elite Universities. I am able to report that their admissions policies are an unfortunate and corrupt joke. Harvard was once sued for restricting the admission of qualified Jews; a contest currently being waged by Asians.
