clearly this was an attempt to let him host the Oscars despite his homophobic jokes and his refusal to apologize for them. Lemon's comments are required viewing.

I like how Don handed calling her out. I hope she watches the clip/show and understands why what she did was inappropriate in multiple regards.

Really, really.

And actually kind of astonished. Smh.

She was a terrible Oscar host herself. Can't they find someone who isn't full of schtick?

Apologies are for children.

Adults make amends.

Fix it.

He’s trying to make himself out to be the victim. And she played right into it.

Supposedly, the Academy has not commented despite requests.

Completely disappointed in Ellen (though her new standup is very funny)!
