  1. I don’t really get the logic here? Wouldn’t it be more reasonable to ask them to have the award shows and use it as a fundraiser with all the money made?

  2. The contracts are signed and sponsors are in place. I agree with others that they could use them to fundraise but now showing them now probably won’t fly considering how much time is spent prepping them.

  3. If you don’t air the shows there will not be any revenue to donate lmao

  5. What a stupid take. No show, no revenue. Good lord some people are too dumb to believe.

  8. Ha yes, donate the revenue to the millionaires who just lost their houses. How will these people ever recover.

    How bout donating that money to the homeless that litter the streets of LA, try to help then turn there life around.

  9. Well I guess if your last name is smart you don’t have to prove if you are or not. But it shows.

  10. Wouldn’t a large part of the revenue come from ads shown during the broadcast?

  11. If nothing airs, donate what revenue? Trying to understand the calculus.

  12. First responders? You mean the prisoners making 70 cents an hour to put out fires ?

  13. Yeah they should run a designing women marathon instead.

  15. New headline : tv actress shows why she isnt an economist

  16. These rich assholes should be rebuilding neighborhoods on their own, oh boo fucking hoo Billy Crystal has to go live in one of his other McMansions.
