So virtue signalers Tina Fey and Amy Poehler are told suddenly by the LA TIMES and the NY TIMES they have to care about the melanin content of the voters in the Golden Globe Awards.

So sincere, so brave.

Just curious: how many caucasians are there deciding the winners of the BET Awards or the Ebony Harlem Awards?

I could not care less about a bunch of anti-Americans patting themselves on the back.

It is kinda crazy that not one black person is a voting member.

They are like those two girls in 8th grade who go everywhere together.

How long has it been since they were the “news anchors” on Saturday Night Live?

Hollywood Foreign Press? Are they literally foreigners in America? If so, perhaps not a surprise at the lack of African reporters covering Hollywood.

Since they are foreign journalists, what is the distribution of countries they are from. I would expect no black representatives from the Asian countries and none from Europe except for a small chance in Britain or France (originally from their colonies). There would be a greater chance from the Caribbean or Brazil.

OHMIGAWD! So Fey and Pohler should have ceded their hosting duties to Whoopie and Oprah.

It would be interesting to see if blacks are banned or have not elected to participate.

Larry Elder has been remarking about all of the awards programs that are snubbing his documentary “Uncle Tom” despite all of the commercial success it has had in the documentary catagory.

Those two talentless self-absorbed muttonheads are not black, so they should bow out and give the job to blacks and then shut up.

Maybe there aren't any black members because they are a minority, only 13% of the population, and they have not aspired to running the Golden Globes. White people invented the movies. White people invented the awards shows.

I wish that the same standard for inclusiveness were used for other endeavors, such as sports leagues. We have the NBA and the NFL. I've been told by others what the N stands for in these acronyms. On the face of it, that explanation seems to be true.

I can honestly say that I have not seen any of the shows that were nominated for the awards.

While I was aware of a couple of them, I never heard of most of them.

A recent crossroad puzzle clue asked for the name of the actor who played Perry Mason. Neither Raymond nor Burr fit in the puzzle. I had no idea that there was a new Perry Mason series.

I do watch the reruns of the original Perry Mason on ME TV, though. I especially enjoy looking at the cars from the late 50’s and early 60’s.
