Comments on: Shales on Rock http://poliblogger.com/?p=6333 A rough draft of my thoughts...

The ratings were the highest in four or five years. The show every year is rather boring. We forget that this show is simply to sell movie tickets and now DVDs.

(/sarcasm) Seriously, Rock put himself in a tough position. The oscars is hollywood's little lovefest to itself, and Rock is nowhere near a lovefest kind of comedian. Imagine if Eddie Murphy had hosted the oscars in his prime. I think they need someone like Seinfeld, myself. Tom Shales didn’t like something. Alert the media. (/sarcasm)

The way I put it to Deb was that he wasn't really offensive but he also wasn't much of a host or funny any of the times he appeared to be trying to be.
