Controversy
Ricky Gervais
Twitter
@rickygervais
1. Simply pointing out whether someone is left or right wing isn't winning the argument. 2. If a joke is good enough, it can be enjoyed by anyone. 3. It's not all about you. 4. Just because you're offended, doesn't mean you're right.
Controversy arose following
Ricky Gervais ' opening monologue, which was seen as an attack on the perceived hypocrisy of
Hollywood .
[12]
[13]
[14]
[15] He joked about several controversial topics, such as
the death of
Jeffrey Epstein , the
college admissions scandal , and the middle-aged
Leonardo DiCaprio 's attraction to younger women. Gervais also jokingly accused the
Hollywood Foreign Press of
racism for its lack of diversity in the "in memoriam" section, mocked
Amazon ,
Apple and
Disney for their labor practices, and chastised awardees who talk about their political views in acceptance speeches.
[13]
[14]
[15]
Gervais' comments attained mixed reactions across the political spectrum; while
conservatives highly praised Gervais,
[16] journalists from
liberal outlets were more critical,
[17]
[18]
[19] with
Rolling Stone 's
Rob Sheffield calling his monologue "incredibly stale".
[20] Of the criticism, Gervais said it was the "best ever", and later defended his jokes in a
tweet .
