Beatty released a statement Tuesday to The Associated Press in which he declined to comment further on the debacle that led to him and co-presenter Faye Dunaway mistakenly reading La La Land as best picture winner rather than Moonlight. “I feel it would be more appropriate for the president of the Academy, Cheryl Boone Isaacs, to publicly clarify what happened as soon as possible,” said Beatty.

NewsThe Hollywood ReporterAcademy, Oscar Accountants Offer More Apologies; Investigation Launched
It’s been less than 24 hours since the most notorious fubar in Oscar history — the mistaken announcement that La La Land had won best picture, when in fact the award was meant for Moonlight — and accounting firm PricewaterhouseCooper has now issued an unusual second apology, while the Academy is announcing that it will conduct an investigation of the way the tell-tale envelopes are handled at the Oscar ceremony while offering an apology of its own. Going beyond the first statement of apology that was issued Sunday night, three hours after the Oscar broadcast ended, PwC on Monday sent out what it called a “revised statement” in which it squarely shoulders the blame for the incident, cites PwC partner Brian Cullinan for the mistake and offers another apology to all involved in the embarrassing drama that played out on national television.

NewsYahoo Movies UKThe greatest reactions to the La La Land/Moonlight Oscar gaffe
While the Oscars of 2017 will be remembered for, quite literally, one thing, the ‘Moonlight’/’La La Land’ debacle can also perhaps be summed up in a single image. And it’s of Ryan Gosling’s face. Holding his hand to his mouth to try and keep from bursting out laughing, the ‘La La Land’ star looked very much how everyone was feeling. It seemed to say ‘someone’s going to get fired’, after ‘La La Land’ was mistakenly named Best Picture by Warren Beatty, when the winner was actually ‘Moonlight’. Of course, it’s been hailed on Twitter as being perhaps the quintessential image of the evening. ...
NewsYahoo Movies UKOscars 2017: Was Leonardo DiCaprio to blame for Warren Beatty's epic fail?
DiCaprio to blame? The biggest moment of the 2017 Oscars came when Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway incorrectly announced ‘La La Land’ as the Best Picture winner when the actual winner was ‘Moonlight’. It’s since emerged that Beatty was actually holding the envelope for Best Actress which announced ‘La La Land’s Emma Stone as the winner, so you can understand the confusion from the presenters. Some people on Twitter are suggesting that it’s all Leonardo DiCaprio’s fault.
NewsYahoo Movies UKWarren Beatty announced the WRONG Best Picture winner at the Oscars
The 89th Academy Awards was plunged in chaos right at the end of the ceremony on Sunday night when Warren Beatty announced the Best Picture winner as ‘La La Land’, when it was actually ‘Moonlight’. What made it even more excruciating was that the ‘La La Land team’ were already half-way through their speeches when the mistake was realised, which meant that they all then had to leave the stage and be replaced by those that made ‘Moonlight’. Warren Beatty, who read out the winner of the Best Picture gong alongside Faye Dunaway to mark the fiftieth anniversary of ‘Bonnie And Clyde’, came back on stage to explain that the envelope he had opened actually had Emma Stone’s name on it.

NewsBen Falk1968: The Most Racially-Charged Oscars Ever?
With the #OscarsSoWhite controversy at the top of the agenda, we look back at the 1968 Academy Awards ceremony, broadcast six days after the death of Martin Luther King and featuring nominations for race-focused films like ‘In The Heat of the Night’ and ‘Guess Who’s Coming To Dinner’. It wasn’t until the announcement of the Best Actor award towards the end of 10 April that the 1968 Oscars properly acknowledged the tension that had been emanating round the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium all night. Rod Steiger (above), who won the prize for playing a bigoted Southern cop thrown together with a black detective to solve a murder in drama ‘In the Heat of the Night’, finished his speech with a stirring statement using pointed vocabulary normally associated with the civil rights movement.
