Has she considered that maybe this had to do with acting skills and not color?

Why was this woman elected president of the Academy? Was it to make the Libs feel good about themselves?

The 5,500 voting members of the Academy of Motion Pictures Arts and Sciences choose the nominees for each award, as well as the winner among the five nominees. All members vote on Best Picture, while peers vote for nominees and winners in the other non-specialized categories

Aint it grand when a boatload of liberals get called out for being racists?

Don’t make a pandering movie that only focuses on certain people ... and not with lousy acting either ....

I dont get it.

Blacks only make up 12% of the population, thus they should only show up in any list 12% of the time.

Morgan Freeman gets it half way right on economics and at the 1:00 mark blows Don Lemon right off his seat with the truth about race in Hollywood.

The problem is that last year “12 Years a Slave” won an Oscar just because it was about slavery, not because it was a great movie.

The race-industrial complex now thinks that should happen every year.

I seem to remember a few years ago when blacks won disproportionately, and Haile Berry cried all over the stand. It was disgusting. I mean, it drives me crazy when all people can do is focus on the color of people’s skin. It totally takes away from the award for what it is, an ACTING award, not an ACTING WHILE BLACK award.

They are either good at what they do and win an award or it is someone else’s turn, go stamp your feet somewhere else. These people are so obsessed with the amount of their melanin it is obnoxious. And I don’t care about their “experience”. My ancestors died in a war to free them, and my family lost EVERYTHING in that war, their property, their children, everything. The one that survived ended up committing suicide he was affected so badly. You won’t see me weeping and crying over how I’m owed.

They need to get over it.

Relax Al, I’m sure there will be plenty of “Hands up, don’t shoot” and “I can’t breathe” crap on display at the Oscars this year.

...and the widespread criticism

Al Sharpton running his mouth again counts as "widespread criticism"?

What you have to keep in mind is just who makes those who vote to nominate. It’s pretty much an older group of actors and it’s not a committee of people within the Academy.
So unless they want to change the rules of who can vote to nominate or how the process works then what will happen?

None of this would be happening if that shop clerk in Switzerland had let Oprah handle the $38,000 purse.

It ws good that I haven’t cared about the Academy Awards for over 20 years.

Making Selma a winner won’t change the fact that nobody wants to watch it!
