...night, Tuesday, UPN is looking to "broaden its audience," which would usually be code for "get white people to watch." In this case it isn't code, because Ostroff came right out and said it: its first new Tuesday sitcom, "All of Us" - executive produced by Will and Jada Pinkett Smith and about a man, his girlfriend, his soon-to-be-ex-wife -tested extremely high, in her words, "with Caucasian audiences."

A sobbing Halle Berry, the first African-American woman ever to win Best Actress, gave a moving speech, accepting the Oscar on behalf of Dorothy Dandridge, Lena Horne, Diahann Carroll, Jada Pinkett, Angela Bassett, Viveca Fox and "every nameless, faceless woman of color that now has a chance because this door tonight has been opened." Then, running down the usual list of thank-yous and being pressured to wrap up, she said, "74 years here, I've got to take this time...
