So, the evidence is still murky on whether North Korea is really responsible for the Sony Pictures hack. But that’s not stopping Hollywood from getting its North Korea mockery on. Korean-American actress/comedienne Margaret Cho led a skit at the Golden Globes, playing a North Korean member of the Hollywood Foreign Press.

Some hated it:

i've always loved margaret cho but she needs to stop shuckin' for white folk.

@margaretcho still not funny. The Asian stereotyping bit still old, even pretending to be North Korean. Worst bit of the night #GoldenGIobes
