Joan Rivers was not included in the "in memorium" segment of the Oscars, last night. It was insensitive and thoughtless on their part, and I am sure that it was hurtful to her family. Joan added so much to Oscar night. I am hoping they will issue some sort of apology for the omission.

I thought that snub was awful. Joan was Hollywood & New York. I understand she did some acting so why the snub? Shame on them that made that decision. We all love Joan and we honor her in this thread.

Joan did not engage in the politics of the academy and thus, the snub...however, she is listed on the online version...they claim they could not show all do to time constraints but they did have time for the usual political garbage per usual at the Oscars.People e expressing their opinions, (as Joan OFTEN did) is "garbage."

She wasn't an actress ... why would the Oscars even mention her? Are there awards for nightclub comics?

I do not think Joan was a member of the Academy. I always thought that was the criteria.
