Bewitched Slammed For Sick Joke

KIDMAN'S FILM UNDER FIRE FOR HEPATITIS C JOKEOfficials at the American Liver Foundation are fuming with a joke in NICOLE KIDMAN's new movie BEWITCHED, which pokes fun at those suffering with Hepatitis C.In the film, a woman spurns MICHAEL CAINE's character by telling him she has the blood disease.But the ALF's president FREDERICK THOMPSON isn't laughing: "This remarkably tasteless comment plays into the stigma that many people with hepatitis C have to cope with every single day."I can't imagine anyone in Hollywood making a joke about HIV infection, for instance."
