ASK the producers and hosts of coming movie awards shows how or if they'll be addressing the #MeToo moment, and the responses are a grab bag of no comments, dunnos, TBDs and not sures.

Ask the executive producer of the Screen Actors Guild Awards (SAG Awards), or the Turner Broadcasting president responsible for the show, and they reply that yes, indeed, things will be different at their gala on Jan 21: all 13 of their acting awards will be presented by women, as will be the two stunt awards, which will be handed out beforehand. (The show is to be broadcast on TNT and TBS.)
