**t everyone was laughing at Chris Rock's accountant joke.*
The Oscar host introduced a bit where he was presenting the accountants who count the Oscar votes. However, instead of PricewaterhouseCoopers representatives, it was three young Asian children. **
"If anybody’s upset about that joke, just tweet about it on your phone that was also made by these kids," Rock joked afterward.
However, more people were cringing at the joke, deeming it tasteless and offensive.*
