I'mĀ terrible at math (so if these figures are wrong, correct me): Viacom and Disney, which distributed Best Picture winner No Country for Old Men, won seven Oscars each last night, the most of the major studios. Films from Universal won five, Time Warner won four and News Corp won two. Sony Corp took home one.

That would be correct. 7 is the magic number. Cheers to Viacom and Disney?

Disney = ABC = Ocars = multi tier revenue = sham.
