Longtime CBS/NBC TV news reporter-critic David Sheehan, who is hosting a new internet Oscar special 'AND THE WINNERS ARE...' says what he calls the 'about time' syndrome makes Leonardo DiCaprio the only sure thing at tonight's Academy Awards.
Longtime CBS/NBC TV news reporter-critic David Sheehan has updated his new one-hour internet Oscar extravaganza 'AND THE WINNERS ARE ...' to open with a journalistic acknowledgement of the current controversy about the absence of African-Americans in this year's Academy Awards nominations. The opening features a leadoff interview with Will Smith, whose highly touted performance in 'Concussion' was ignored, adding more momentum to Smith's own viral social media protest hashtag #OscarsSoWhite.
