Woods was blacklisted for criticizing Obama. They were okay with him being conservative until that happened. Same with Roseanne and Valerie Jarrett.

Maybe Caitlyn Jenner is available to host.

"Actor James Woods would be the perfect Oscars host"

__________

"My attitude about Hollywood is that I wouldn't walk across the street to pull one of those executives out of the snow if he was bleeding to death. Not unless I was paid for it. None of them ever did me any favors." ---- James Woods

They can pick anyone they like. It’s a bloated, long-winded snooze-fest not fit for public consumption. The best thing about it is that they take it (and one another) apart over how bad it is.

But the Hollywood crowd wouldn’t have it any other way. The after-Oscars snark-fest is the one thing they enjoy more than the Oscars themselves.

Actually, the author is on to something, but it would be a huge mistake to try to fight fire with fire.

Woods or Gary Sinese could pull this off:

Be professional

Be courteous

Humor is good but:
No sexual (or sexuality) jokes
No Political jokes
No ethnic based jokes

Take some advice from Billy Crystal or hire him as your writer

If they did all of the above, their ratings would begin to recover.

I guess we’ll have to wait and see the written reviews of the show. If we even bother with that. Screw follywood.

I might actually watch if Woods emceed it
The texture of the entire event might be delightful.

And Conservatives generally are able to
make fun of themselves and not get their panties in a wad
Classic Liberals often can also

Socialist, Progressive, NWO types, not so much

How about holding the awards in a private setting without broadcasting it and then just give us a list of the winners.

Conservatives need to create a new award show and have Woods host it. It could be the Woodies. Yeah, I know. That one’s already taken.

But seriously, when it gets better ratings than all the other awards shows they'll be forced to take notice.

James Woods would be perfect: he could offend the crap out of ALL grievance groups, achieve record-high ratings, and then be permanently fired ...
