Per a guy (who was there at the awards) on the Bob & Ken radio show in LA today the biggest boos came from the technical people and the stage hands

Having worked in Hollywood myself for about a year this is about right. While the “talent” (there term for actors) and studio big shots are mostly left wing the technical people are regular Americans and run conservative in views

I was working for long hours and many days at ABC TV Hollywood in the broadcast bunker during the 2000 election and the great chad war.

Of the 15 or so broadcast engineers there I say 14 were conservative to very conservative (funny as hell to see them yelling an there own newscasts bias)

PS The “talent” and studio big shots treat everone else (the "little people") like shit...far worse then any other biz I've ever seen... so much about the left carring more about regular people

I've worked in television for three years and on-air talent are the biggest pompous arses. I swear our anchors and reporters here are having a cow with the war.

Interesting insight. The heck with "talent" ... some of the fit the very definition of "meat puppets."

I've always been partial to crewing myself... :-)
