I wrote as much on Monday, but take it from AMPAS president Tom Sherak: “Someone the Academy hired to perform a very important function messed up, messed up badly. He’s done everything he can, but this is him. The Academy did what it needed to do by accepting his resignation when he offered it. Does it tarnish it? I hope not. If someone feels it does, then we will work really hard getting the tarnish off. It wasn’t us, it was someone who worked for us. It’s like anything else. I hope not. We are going to continue to do what we do, which is support the arts and the technology of arts, and we want to be as above the fray as we can be.” [ LAT ]
