In other words, the Academy doesnt want a brush fire to roar out of control.

One source told me under no circumstances did they ever say something like, Vote for Andrea Riseborough.
The goal was just to get the filmseen,against all odds.
Or what influence Riseboroughs manager Jason Weinberg (who is not an Academy member) might have played?
It worked, and the song got nominated.
But I would guess nothing much more.
Maybe we should calm down and let the review take its course.
Like I said, this is where Oscar season getsugly.
