Academy FINALLY Apologizes Weeks Later For Chris Rock Jokes
More than three weeks after the 2016 Oscars, the Academy has apologized for what a group of actors and filmmakers of Asian descent called the 'tone-deaf' portrayal of Asians during this year's ceremony.
In a letter to the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, double Oscar-winning director Ang Lee, 'Star Trek' actor George Takei and more than 20 other people criticized the 'tasteless and offensive skits' regarding Asians and asked to ensure that people of all races are portrayed with dignity.
