Message: [QUOTE="Lenard, post: 1902, member: 5"] Clout means influence in whatever activity a person is involved in. For example, a record label executive will have more clout in the music business but not so much in the political arena. So for a record label executive to have more clout in other areas they need to network with the powers that be in whatever area they are trying to diversify into. In addition, A-list actors and musicians will obviously have more clout than D-list actors and singers. Therefore, if a D-list actor continues to get recognition and recommendation from A-list actors they will gain more clout. [/QUOTE]
