Dying Oscar Telecast Bombs with 4th Lowest
Ratings in History

Original Article

Posted By: Imright, 3/12/2024 8:46:22 AM

With only 19.5 million viewers, Sunday night’s Academy Awards bombed with the fourth-lowest viewership in Oscar history. Naturally, the sycophants in the corporate media who need Hollywood’s ad dollars and refuse to admit America will never embrace their fascist Woke Revolution are spinning this failure with these howler headlines: “Oscars 2024 Hit 4-Year Viewership High With 19.5 Million” and “TV Ratings: Oscars Score Post-Pandemic Highs” and “‘Barbenheimer,’ and an Early Start, Boost Oscar Ratings to 4-Year High.”

Of those 19.5 million viewers, what was the average length of time the viewer actually watched the Oscars? I'm guessing less than ten minutes. Most of which were commercials.

Reminds me of the old joke of when USSR and America decided to have one athletic contest to see which country produced better athletes so they settled on the 1500-meter race and when the American bested the Soviet, the headline in Pravda was: “Russian comes in second, American finishes next to last.”

I happily report that I haven't watched since fat boy Michael Moron tried to shame my then C-in-C now disappointing dimwit GWB onstage due to the Iraq War. It used to be fun to watch the Oscars. I still remember the last one I watched from beginning to end was when Titanic took home 14 awards. Billy Crystal was funny, and it was a good show. I still had my VCR and recorded it. Now I just don't care about movies that much anymore. Which is sad because I was a huge movie buff as a kid and a younger man. Now that I'm over 50 I doubt I'll get that magic back. Tanks for nothing Hollywood.

Didn't watch. Not boycotting....its just not very interesting to me anymore. I understand Oppenheimer cleaned up which is probably well-deserved. Mrs. Holliday likes to see the stars' outfits but that's about it. They won't ask me for my opinion but it needs to be politics-free, a couple of nice song or dance numbers, give out the awards then go home. I blame Brando and Sacheem Littlefeather for starting that virtue-signaling krep. I haven't seen "Oppie" yet but will in the next few days. The development of the bomb has always fascinated me.

Many movies, now, no longer try to please us, their audience, by truly reflecting both the good and bad in human existence; instead, they mostly lecture to us on what Hollywood sees as our failings, And then the actors strut around spending money in a drug daze and looking down their noses at humanity.

Remember when Hollywood was filled with actors and directors who desperately wanted to freely express themselves without big corporate interests telling them what to do, being accused of holding Communist sympathies, or Washington DC bureaucrats threatening to censor their "art?" In today's "brave new world" actors and directors beg for corporate involvement, product placement, and filthy lucre, while gladly bowing down to government censorship demands, not only from DC, but even those coming from foreign governments, including hostile Communist ones. The entire industry has been devolved into a perverse, Goebbelesque propaganda operation for hire, sans allegiance to "arts." Artificial Intelligence will destroy the movie industry and grossly overpaid actors will be lucky to find low paid work doing "summer-stock."

The big news from the tv show was a declining number of younger viewers. Realize the baby boomers are 60+ now, and likely never saw any of the movies nominated except possibly Oppenheimer (which is 3 hours+). They are an industry in decline, less glamorous than previously, and they don't represent most of society.

During a campaign appearance in Denver this week, Vice President Kamala Harris warned the audience that if Trump is reelected, he will weaponize the Department of Justice against his enemies. That’s a rather ironic statement, considering that this is exactly what the Biden administration is doing right now.

A federal judge ruled that Hunter Biden will face a trial on federal gun charges on June 3 in Delaware. The president's son, 54, has pleaded not guilty to three felony charges related to him lying about his drug use when purchasing a gun in 2018. He faces up to 25 years in prison if he is convicted after the trial that could last up to nine days. His gun trial on June 3 comes immediately for a separate trial in a case brought by Special Counsel David Weiss on nine tax charges set for June 20 in California.

President Vladimir Putin said Wednesday that Russia is ready to use nuclear weapons if its sovereignty or independence is threatened, issuing another blunt warning to the West just days before an election in which he’s all but certain to secure another six-year term. The Russian leader has repeatedly talked about his readiness to use nuclear weapons since launching a full-scale invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24, 2022. The most recent such threat came in his state-of-the-nation address last month, when he warned the West that deepening its involvement in the fighting in Ukraine would risk a nuclear war.

It's South By Southwest Conference (SXSW) time in Austin, Texas. It is an annual event that is "a global event for digital creatives to explore cutting-edge ideas, discover new interests, and network with professionals." The conference dates this year are March 8-15. Austin is a big live music city and SXSW brings in musicians from all over the world. This year there is controversy because many bands and musicians scheduled to perform at the festival are pulling out of the event because of the U.S. Army's "super sponsorship" of the festival. They are also taking a pass on performing because of America's support of Israel in the Israel-Hamas war.
