Hello Everyone!
I was watching the Oscars on Sunday and about half-way through noticed that the men tended to speak first when the presenters were a male/female combo. The rule was changed when the male actor was a minority.
Since I noticed this late and didn't have a spreadsheet handy, I wasn't able to verify this hypothesis.
I have created a simple data set that has all of the presenters and their associated award, along with *** and Ethnicity data. I was able to fill out a few of the presenter orders from memory, but don't want to make assumptions.
I'd love some help filling out the Speaking Order Column in the data set. All 3 Values indicate that the speaking order is unknown.
If anyone has a recording of the 2016 Oscars or can remember the order that would be awesome!
Thanks for the help!
Here is an updated version of your spreadsheet with my sister's edits. Her comments:
"I think he's onto something: I count 10 male/female presenting pairs and the woman spoke first 3 times."
