"This past Saturday (Jan. 25), Shonda Rhimes and "Scandal" executive producer Betsy Beers received a Diversity Award from the Directors Guild of America. So how does Rhimes feel about being honored in such a way? Not too great. “When I heard I was getting a Diversity Award, I was really, truly, profoundly honored ... but I was also a little pissed off,” Rhimes said, according to EW. “So was Betsy. So over many, many, many bottles of wine we discussed this.” “We’re a little pissed off because there still needs to be an award. Like, there’s such a lack of people hiring women and minorities that when someone does it on a regular basis, they are given an award.""
