Today’s Trivia Question in Honor of Emmy Week and courtesy of The Emmys, by Thomas O’Neil: True or False — While George C. Scott turned down his Oscar for Patton in 1971 saying the Oscars was nothing more than a popularity contest, he kept the Emmy he won the same year for a Hallmark Hall of Fame performance in The Price. He said the television award was a far more honest indication of an actor’s work. (click here with your answer and be sure to include your name, company, city and time zone. Unofficial rules: Only the second four correct answers from each time zone will be mentioned; and once you’ve been mentioned in any of the Cynopsis editions, you can’t be mentioned again that calendar week.)
