90th Academy Awards, Dolby Theatre, Hollywood, California

Well that might be true, she's been on stage at 1 billion award shows since then so I don't see what the big deal is.

If OJ Simpson and Bill Cosby can still walk on stage why can't an 80 year old women?

She disgraced the country when it was in the midst of turmoil over the Viet Nam war something I and many will never forgive her for.
It makes me sick to see her on stage.

Fair enough.

Fair enough.

The point being

Not sure they have ever "honored" the military
And then when they do; they trot out Hanoi Jane 20 mins later

????

But keep babbling on about Trump

Would you have the same reaction if they trotted out Bush and Cheney? I don't think so, they did far worse then Jane Fonda ever did? I don't think you'd be posting "Hollywood Clowns" if you saw George or Dick handing out an award would you, nope don't think so.

You want to be upset with Jane Fonda and what she did, that's totally fair, but be consistent with your hatred.

Lowest ratings in history :mj07:

LOS ANGELES ? The doomsday ratings scenario has hit the Oscars.
A record low 26.5 million people watched Sunday night?s telecast, a nearly 20 percent drop versus last year.
It also represents a startling drop off: As recently as four years ago, the Academy Awards had an audience of 43.7 million viewers.
The previous record low was in 2008 when 32 million viewers watched a hastily organized ceremony that proceeded just days after the Writers Guild of America?s strike had ended.
Moving the ceremony up to 8 p.m. on Sunday on ABC ? a half-hour earlier than its 8:30 p.m. slot ? did little to aid the show?s rapidly declining audience.
ABC executives were concerned enough before the ceremony that they said publicly that Oscar winners should not feel compelled to make fiery political speeches. Keeping things frothy and fun would do just fine.
And the show, for the most part, stayed away from the industry?s concerns over the Trump administration (a contrast from a politics-heavy Golden Globes and Emmys), though it did emphasize the #MeToo and Time?s Up movements.
Television executives often point to a lackluster slate of performers or movies as a reason for disastrous ratings. But with $57.4 million in ticket sales, ?The Shape of Water? was the biggest best picture winner in five years since ?Argo? won best picture in 2013.
Ratings for live award shows have plummeted in the last six months. The Grammys saw a quarter of its audience plunge in January, and the Screen Actors Guild Awards similarly saw a 30 percent drop.
