From Nikki Finke’s Oscar live blog:
As if Hanoi Jane weren’t fuel enough. Oh My God – the Academy actually fans the fire by drafting First Lady Michelle Obama to help present Best Picture from presumably the White House? So unnecessary and inappropriate to inject so much politics into the Oscars yet again.
Finke has never been what anyone would call a conservative but has always been brutally forthright with Hollywood criticism. Pretty significant.
