Actor James Franco joins a coveted list of those snubbed by the Oscar\u2019s. Franco\u2019s though maybe for good reason. This morning the nominations for the Academy Awards were announced. Franco who was an early contender on the awards circuit for his role in \u201cThe Disaster Artist\u201d didn\u2019t receive any nominations. Nearly two weeks ago five women came forward accusing Franco of sexual misconduct. All of the accusers were former acting students of Francos who accuse him of lewd behavior and taking advantage of them.<\/p>\n

If the allegations are true then Franco’s snub is warranted.\u00a0 It is time Hollywood stops coddling bad behavior.<\/div>\n
