Speaking Truth to Hollywood

Ricky Gervais, hosting the Golden Globes awards show as reported by the Hollywood Reporter, cracking wise about the ridiculous political opinions of show biz folk.

If you do win an award tonight, don’t use it as a platform to make a political speech. You’re in no position to lecture the public about anything. You know nothing about the real world. Most of you spent less time in school than Greta Thunberg.

And you weren’t paying attention while there, either. It may be ‘roast’ humor, but it’s also self-evidently true.
