    KLMNO SATURDAYSt, MARCH 9, 2019y . WASHINGTONPOST.COM/STYLEle EZ SU C Actor Jussie Smollett is This multilingual Canadian comedian can properly offend people in France and Canada. indicted on Now, he wants to find out whether America can take a joke. 16 counts BY SONIA RAO A Cook County, Ill., grand jury has indicted “Empire” actor Jussie Smollett on 16 felony counts for allegedly lying about a hate-crime attack, according to multiple re- ports. The indictment, returned Thursday, comes two weeks after prosecutors charged Smollett with felony disorderly conduct for filing a false police report. Smollett, who is black and openly gay, told Chicago police in late January that he had been attacked by two people who yelled racial and homophobic slurs, hit him, poured a chemical substance on him and wrapped a rope around his neck. He also said at least one of the attackers had yelled, “This is MAGA country,” referring to President Trump’s campaign slogan. The incident at- tracted a great deal of attention as celebrities and advocacy organi- zations expressed their support on social media, and Smollett said on “Good Morning America” in mid-February that he was “for- ever changed” by the incident. But skepticism about Smollett’s account grew as police continued to investigate, questioning two “persons of interest” who turned out to be brothers of Nigerian descent who had previously worked on Fox’s “Empire.” Within days of the “Good Morning Ameri- ca” interview, police announced that the trajectory of the criminal investigation had shifted, and that Smollett was being treated as a suspect.

Once a promising painter herself, Claire now lives in the shadow of her husband’s illustrious career. While preparing work for his final show, Richard’s moods become increasingly erratic, and he is diagnosed with dementia. As his memory and behavior deteriorate, she shields his condition from the art community while trying to reconnect him with his estranged daughter and grandson from a previous marriage. Challenged by the loss of her world as she knew it, Claire must now decide whether to stand with Richard on the sidelines or step into the spotlight herself.

The seeds of this progress were first sown in 2012, shortly after our new team of officers began their term, and continued throughout the following year. At that time, the so-called “new golden age of television” was well under way. More — and better — programming than ever was being produced and distributed on more platforms than ever, and the notion that television had become the premier medium for innovative, risk-taking storytelling was no longer wishful thinking. Instead, it was widely accepted as fact. These developments marked a transitional moment not only for our industry, but for our organization. And as television rose in stature and influence, the Academy, to be frank, had to up its game. In my discussions at that time with our Executive Committee and Board of Governors, we resolved that, in order to remain at the forefront of innovation and thought leadership, we needed to reaffirm our position at the vanguard as the one organization that represents all aspects of the creative process of developing, producing and distributing television content.
