Sunday Night Show Down: The Oscars

Well with all of the heavy anticipation comes the big show this Sunday at 7 pm on ABC. However, aside from all of the big stars that may or may not be there, I am interested to see how the Oscars will handle of the recent criticism that they have received from social media. Specifically speaking of #OscarsSoWhite. I'm interested in seeing if the president of the Academy, who is a black women, will make a statement acknowledging the recent issue that has surfaced through a variety of mass media outlets. With Chris Rock being the host I am sure he will make a string of jokes as it relates to the academy awards. However, how far is he going to go? More importantly, how will the media cover the event? Will they cue the music if things start getting out of hand as it relates to people bringing awareness to Oscars So White? Or will they cut to commercial break? What is the response going to be? So many questions that I hope to get answered this Sunday. But best believe I will be tuning in, ready for something to pop off at any moment.
