No link--read it in the newspaper. I'm glad--he deserves it.

1. The honorary ones have 10 times more merit than the real ones.

2. You're right, because they're given after reflecting on a person's work
Too often the Oscars are given out by getting caught up in the moment and the hype, and people who win, shouldn't have, and those who didn't, should have!
