This is bigger than just the two of them apologizing to each other.
This night was not a “Will Smith ONLY Night”. This night was a night that was supposed to be the high point in the careers of many people in the entertainment industry and all everybody was talking about was … Will Smith SLAPPED Chris Rock.
Then they awarded Will Smith an Oscar.
THE AWARD SHOULD BE TAKEN AWAY!!
There is no debating this, Personally, I didn't think Chris Rock's joke was really all that offensive. But I think Will Smith's reaction and what he did … OFFENDED EVERY INDIVIDUAL WHO WAS NOMINATED AND/OR WHO RECEIVED AN ACADEMY AWARD THAT NIGHT.
