Hollywood promueve/saca a relucir temas provocativos/controversiales
Explanation:
To "push" an idea, is to bring it out on the open, to make people aware. Like when an actor mentions gay marriage, or the war, in an award acceptance speech. Many people think that's not the right venue to talk about such things.
