Will the star-studded Golden Globes on Sunday night be a celebration of the creative arts — or a self-congratulatory, Trump-bashing hatefest served up by a pampered elite dressed in black?

On Friday evening’s edition of “The Ingraham Angle,” host Laura Ingraham and political commentator Michelle Malkin discussed the already-clear indications the 75th Golden Globes awards ceremony will be rife with displays of hypocrisy and narcissism.

Serious scandals rocked Hollywood this year, and the major repercussions went well beyond stage and screen. Ripple effects occurred across industries, across the country, and across the world. Some of Hollywood’s best-known power players were pulled under in the #MeToo tsunami of sexual harassment allegations, among them Harvey Weinstein, Louis C.K., Dustin Hoffman, Kevin Spacey, and many others.

Referring to headlines such as Reuters’ “Party or Not? Golden Globes Proves Test for Hollywood Sex Scandal” and NPR’s “Are Harassment Scandals Overshadowing Hollywood’s Award Season?” Ingraham said, “Are we supposed to feel sorry for these folks who have oversexualized themselves and the culture for years … because their goody bag experience is not going to be as fulsome this year?”

She also referenced an NPR interview on Thursday, in which Kim Masters of The Hollywood Reporter said, “I want to take it [the scandals and the resulting “protests”] back to Donald Trump. I think a lot of fuel for this movement is the fact that he has been accused of misconduct and he’s still sitting there in the White House.”

There it was again — the deflection and attempt to blame Trump for all that’s wrong in their industry.

Of these outrageous remarks, Michelle Malkin said, “At some point, it has to be the responsibility of all these liberal women — whether it’s Meryl Streep or all the liberal co-hosts at NPR and PBS who are responsible for allowing all these predators and perverts to walk among them and work among them while they were pointing their fingers at Republicans and conservatives.”

Earlier this week, Laura Ingraham exposed the politically motivated ulterior motives of the Time’s Up initiative — a “movement” ostensibly intended to help women in and outside Hollywood deal with the legal ramifications of workplace sexual harassment. In a segment on “The Ingraham Angle,” she highlighted Streep’s hypocritical call for first lady Melania Trump and first daughter Ivanka Trump to speak out about the president’s alleged sexual indiscretions — even as Streep herself allegedly kept her lips zipped for years about Harvey Weinstein’s unacceptable and even criminal behavior. Streep is an outspoken advocate of the Time’s Up initiative and has donated half a million dollars to the cause, according to CNBC — and there’s no doubt she’ll be dressed in black in “solidarity” with all those who have been victims of sexual abuse or harassment.

Grab some popcorn and settle in on Sunday night — if you can stomach it.

Though this year’s host, Seth Meyers, has said he’ll keep politics out of the Globes ceremony, let’s get real: Politics is the order of the day. He’s already said he’s “reserving the right to change [his] mind,” according to a report in Newsweek on Thursday. Given the liberal nature of the Hollywood community, the political motivation of the Time’s Up movement, and Meyers’ own lengthy history of poking fun at the president on his comedy show, it seems reasonable Meyers is going to “change” his mind.

Grab some popcorn and settle in on Sunday night — if you can stomach it.

The Golden Globes airs live from Beverly Hills on NBC January 7 at 5 p.m. PST/8 p.m. EST.
