Don't tweet and award: PwC accountants involved in Oscar fiasco fired

2017-03-01 5

Brian Cullinan and Martha Rui, the two PWC accountants involved with the Best Picture mix-up at the Oscars, will not work the awards show again. Academy president Cheryl Boone Isaacs blamed Cullinan for being distracted by tweeting during the show. Isaacs praised presenters Beatty and Dunaway and host Jimmy Kimmel for gracefully taking charge of the situation. She also lauded "La La Land" producer Jordan Horowitz, whom she said "went from a nominee to a winner to a presenter in a matter of minutes."
