Havent seen either comedy actor, but Haddish is buzzy due to Girl's Trip and Atlanta is very popular.

Cameron Britton or Matthew Goode should have won guest actor, but Jones was superb in season 1 of This is Us. Maybe it was a makeup win.

Dianna Rigg probably should have won guest actress but Samira Wiley is fantastic. And people loved her on Orange is the New Black.

So it seems that Buzz and past performances decided the winners, not their race.

It’s not difficult to achieve a milestone in the era of enforced diversity.

There won’t be true ‘diversity’ until all winners are black, or at least none are white.

I’m looking forward to the day when writers can write about the performances that won the awards and not dwell on the skin color of the awardees themselves.

EdnaMode, you did it right. I’m talking about the author of the referenced article.

Sounds like the “diversity” of the cast of “Hamilton” where white actors were told not to apply.

I am getting really SICK of the ghettoization of America, the coarsening of our culture continues.

Black biochem PhD’s, rocket scientists
Mexican hackers, hedge-fund managers
Slim 15 y.o. hot high-school girls who knock-out ex-Spetnaz contractors
Passive, slack-jawed white guys who say dumb stuff and act amazed
No male asian characters ever, if there’s an asian girl she’s in a dragon dress
50% of characters are gay
The murderer always turns out to be a priest or businessman

I hate 90% of movies I TRY to watch these days

I do not care what race people are. I wish everyone felt the same.

The headline writer is oblivious to irony. How is one race winning all the major awards “diversity”?

So, the awards were given as a case of affirmative action.

The DS is in “full desperation” mode-

TV is the last tool they have to keep the black population voting “D”

Wow, what a coincidence. After BLM and other radical organizations launching threats at the entertainment industry (#OscarsSoWhite) - a plethora of affirmative action awards nominations favoring blacks suddenly comes to fruition. Amazing! And you all thought the gay black movie Moonlighting just happened to beat La La Land at the Oscars two years ago because it was a better movie?

What is an “emmy?”

For that matter, What is TV?

Diversity means one race dominates? I have trouble keeping up sometimes.
