She also says that it won't be a "television personality," either (so forget Oprah) and that the Oscarcast will not have a monologue of in- jokes near the top:
http://www.deadlinehollywooddaily.com/oscar-news-host-wont-do-stand-up-protests-over-ampas-honor-for-jerry-lewis/ Nikki also reports that the AMPAS Board of Governors is being bombarded with complaints about the announcement that Jerry Lewis will be given the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award (considering his many off-the-wall remarks about women and gays in recent years)--needless to say, another post of hers get Drudged--when is Nikki (or a lot of other bloggers) going to tell Drudge to knock it off, or is the spike in hits more important than reasoned discussion? For example, a comment from a townhall.com blogger: Look at how these fine upstanding citizens, who have all the same rights as everyone else, (we can all get married, we just can’t marry our sister, mother, brother the twins down the block, or someone of the same sex), attack and slur and denigrate those that disagree with their trying to get special rights. Jerry Lewis is a great man, who has devoted his life to raising money for sick people. These fags should shut up before this armed society reaches the tipping point and “thins the herd” because they are to violent to remain in polite society. They tried to change the law, they lost. This is America, that is how it works. They have the freedom to go to a different country where they can deviate from the societal norms, o wait, there is no successful country, and never has been in history, were deviancy is considered normal and forced on it’s citizens. There is a reason for that. These genetically flawed people are to be pitied, but their genetic flaws are not normal, any more than downs syndrome of a hair-lip is normal.
