Maybe they needed killing...
Bannon has a diverse history…
Go woke, go broke.
I maybe would watch an Oscar Presentation if the pimps, whores and addicts that run hollyweird could make movies worth watching. It’s all garbage. Amateurish and juvenile.
Go woke go broke? Nope…
Appears that they had an answer for all that. Replace conservatives dollars with our tax dollars. We actually have been paying for every variation of media, entertainment, sports, education and the like unknowingly via theft of our tax dollars.
A very clever plan that miraculously has been foiled.
I am a Freeper. I read the entire article. Too long, but interesting enough. It was a detailed statement of the obvious from a Hollywood insider.
The liberal artists, writers, producers, actors, etc.
I know. Once in a while, we will get a gem like “The Lord Of The Rings” or “Ben Hur”. But nowadays it’s mostly PC woke garbage like “Moonlight” or “Brokeback Mountain”.
The usual miscreants.
Thanks for posting this.
To other Freepers: if you have time, read the piece. The author has been writing about Oscar and other awards. She later was later called names because one of her colleagues leaked that she voted for Trump.
FYI, these are the DEI standards which have to be met to be eligible for Best Picture consideration.

Insider-adjacent analysis ping.
• African American / Black / African and/or Caribbean descent
• East Asian (including Chinese, Japanese, Korean, and Mongolian)
• Hispanic or Latina/e/o/x
• Indigenous Peoples (including Native American / Alaskan Native)
• Middle Eastern / North African
• Pacific Islander
• South Asian (including Bangladeshi, Bhutanese, Indian, Nepali, Pakistani, and Sri Lankan)
• Southeast Asian (including Burmese, Cambodian, Filipino, Hmong, Indonesian, Laotian, Malaysian, Mien, Singaporean, Thai, and Vietnamese)
==============
The Middle Eastern/North African category doesn't specify Muslim or Arab. Broadly interpreted, it might include anyone of Jewish descent.
Although some Jews want Jews to be specifically named in the list, as per this article from 2024:
Major Hollywood stars press Academy to include Jews in representation and inclusion standards .
The omission of Jews in the list of protected groups “erases Jewish peoplehood and perpetuates myths of Jewish whiteness, power, and that racism against Jews is not a major issue or that it’s a thing of the past,” the letter asserts.
Those pretentious jerks close off a major Los Angeles throughway for 2 weeks a year. Supposedly to protect against threats, but in reality they could do the whole thing in 18 hours. The city indulges them, and in return they film in Georgia and Toronto.

Indeed, the Sephardic Jews. I’m 20% Sephardic, 5% Ashkenazi. It seems they haven’t done their genealogy homework thoroughly.
I like movies. Good movies. I used to love watching the Oscars! (Back when I actually cared about the films that were nominated. This year I didn't see a single one though I am looking forward to Anora and The Substance when I can watch them for free on the streaming services.)
Anyhow, good find. Thanks for posting it.
Which is why Emilia Pérez with it's brown, transgender lead should've been a shoe-in. It checked all of the boxes!
Until they dug up the the lead star's old tweets which, how shall we say, were based AF.
Interesting read. I dot follow the film industry. However what broke it is the same thing that broke America.
Btw as I read it I was thinking about how little power the pejorative RACIST now has over me.
Lord knows, Jews have been underrepresented in the entertainment industry.
