They attempted to censor him, by removing part of his speech from the teleprompter. He got his phone out and read it from there instead.
Apple has now gotten caught for doing this to Jon Stewart and now Robert De Niro in a month’s time. Not great.
Kind of a bummer, AppleTV+ actually has really good content now, and this makes me not want to support it.
Corpo bootlickers have entered the chat
What are you smoking? Just about all of us here are shitting on Apple for doing this.
I see few comments shitting on de Niro for being an anti vaxxer as if it holds a weight in this argument… read some of those comments too.
I don’t want to give credit to Apple, but let’s not forget that De Niro is anti vax, among others bullshit he have spewed over the years
I honestly don’t care what the guy had to say. Removing parts from his speech without telling him is plain awful.
Wait… He is? I don’t follow news about celebrities as often and only watch movies and shows, maybe some interviews.
Yeah, this is the first I’ve heard about that.
Yowza

Yeah… honestly don’t blame them for cutting an unhinged rant out of their awards show speeches. But if they did it without informing him, or explicitly approved it to get him to commit, and bait and switched, then yeah, they’re in the wrong.
It did make it far more entertaining, though.
This is just whataboutism.
actually it’s ad hominem,
Ad hominem (Latin for ‘to the person’), short for argumentum ad hominem, refers to several types of arguments, most of which are fallacious. Typically this term refers to a rhetorical strategy where the speaker attacks the character, motive, or some other attribute of the person making an argument rather than attacking the substance of the argument itself.
Also had a kid this year at 80.
Why does him being antivaxx matter lol he should be saying what h wants not he controlled.
U censoring me?
alleges that multiple versions of the speech had been created, and that both Apple and the filmmakers were unaware that De Niro had not approved the final draft.
What a lame excuse LOL that’s just another description for censorship by some clueless interns. And I’m sure they are going to come up with new, multiple versions of lame excuses during the next days.
They should rather take responsibility for their malpractice! Lo and behold: the actor himself has no problem with taking responsibility for his own speech.
ooh a teleprompter streisand effect, nice move from the organizers
Apple Inc has their own awards show?
What is it with atrocities towards native Americans and Hollywood award speeches?

Ad hominem attacks are lazy logical fallacies that show the utter stupidity of people.
The fuck does this old fart’s vax position have to do with his allegation of Apple cutting out the Trump rant of his speech?
Does anyone remember the days when there were a few people who didn’t feel like they needed to make a political statement every five minutes?
