I think the Academy needs an entire housecleaning from top to bottom.

Also you have one of the Governors (Whoopi Goldberg) stating that the Academy will not take away Will Smith's award. Way to go Whoopi both rendering a judgement before all the facts are in and speaking for the entire Board.

They really need a firm hand to clean up this mess. The networks may decide to Golden Globe them. The ratings suck. The show sucked. Then you had the image of a crowd giving a standing ovation after a Academy member battered another member. Sent a great message to Chris Rock.
