The Hollywood Hypocrisy Awards Show

Well, we already have a celebrity president, so why not follow up with another one? That’s apparently the biggest takeaway from the media’s coverage of Sunday night’s Golden Globe awards. Oprah Winfrey evidently made a rousing and emotional speech (did anyone in middle America actually watch it?) that had the Hollywood and media elite having all the feels (as the kids say these days). From NBC tweeting “respect for OUR future president” over a gif of Oprah to all the other celebrities and fellow travelers immediately lifting her banner for 2020, the next presidential election got a lot of attention.

To be fair, Oprah had some good lines. “For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men,” she said. “But their time is up. Their time is up. Their time is up.” Every American should say “amen” to ending sexual abuse, particularly at the hands of powerful men. And to the extent Hollywood really does change its ways, good for them.

That said, after decades of cowardly silence, the spectacle of a theater full of the Hollywood glitterati giving themselves awards for play acting while wearing black to make a statement against sexual abuse (unless they were wearing other skimpy attire that sends a very different message) was too much for our taste. But our taste isn’t what these ritzy entertainers are after. No, these leftists want to incite female voter outrage as an election strategy to help Democrats.

  2. Much like the old, now dead mayor of Washington D.C. Barium Mary might have said, "Who doesn't like Ocra"?

  3. Oprah is one of the most racist people in America. She is so anti white that she dreams of white people dieing off.

  4. Well said. It is a ploy to get women angry. I would believe the accusers if they hadn't waited years to tell their story. I'm sure the harrassment took place - not sure it wasn't consensual to get ahead in Hollywood. Get a name so to speak.
