Do you vote for awards shows to go away?

[richardmurray]

Award shows make money by promoting fashions or selling advertising/sponsorship space, the giving of awards is only the teaser to the profit, giving awards don't make money on their own. Money making can not coincide with everything else. To restate, if you want an civil thoughtful courteousnes/place of a court, that can not occur alongside fiscal capitalistic profiteering. Sooner or later, or inevitably, fiscal capitalistic profiteering will lead to a lack of civlity or a lack of thoughtfulness, from some human actors.

Right.  Very similar to putting toys in cereal boxes. 

 

The reason modern TVs are so cheap nowadays is due to the amount of money advertisers expect to make based on viewing habits.

That is why laws & police exist...to provide order & protect & serve the interests of capitalists.

 

A whole lot of cash money flows through Las Vegas. There is a reason the place has never been hijacked & taken over by armed guerillas. 

 

The same thing applies to the USA in general.  Despite crime statistics & other ills in society, the USA has never had reason to fear being 1) overthrown or 2) invaded.  

 

Fiscal capitalism benefits so many people directly & indirectly that folks from all corners will rise up to protect & defend it.

Whatever. At the week-end BAFATAs award show, which is the British equivalent of America's Academy Awards, somebody in the audience yelled out "nigger" when Michael B. Jordan and Deroy Lindo, stars of best picture nominee, "SINNERS", appeared on stage to announce the winner in one of the other categories.

 Michael didn't slap the offender who, it was later reported, claimed to have Tourettes Syndrome, and after a brief pause, the show went on...

That's a hard act to follow, but the Oscars award show will be televised this coming Sunday in America - and we shall see. Stay tuned...
