At this point, you are babbling and indulging in straw man arguments. I never said Warren Beatty should be "banned." On the contrary, I give him credit for pausing and looking offstage for help at the Oscars, though it is unfortunate that he then handed the card to Dunaway :-(
Neither would I say that people who have mispronounced the names of awards winners should be "banned," although I do think it behooves anyone who gets such an assignment to try VERY HARD to make sure they learn the correct pronunciation, so they can fulfill their assignment correctly.
On a related note, I was quite amazed that Steve Harvey survived his Miss Universe debacle unscathed, but he certainly did, so I guess all bets have been off since then. |
