Cenk, if Bigelow's gender is the reason she eked out a victory in Best Director, how then did Hurt Locker beat Basterds for best screenplay? It was written by a dude.

Could it be that the Academy simply found The Hurt Locker to be the best film of 2009 and the opportunity to award a woman was just icing on the cake? Think about it.
