Accounting firm PwC takes responsibility for Oscars blunder
The Academy Awards' official accounting firm for 83 years, PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) has taken responsibility for the wrong announcement of 'La La Land' winning the Oscar for Best Picture. PwC said accountant Brian Cullinan mistakenly handed the wrong envelope to presenters Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway. Once the error occurred, protocols for correction weren't taken quickly enough, it added.
