The Golden Globes just changed what's possible when it comes to award shows taking on political and social issues.

She also gives her take on how she thinks the men of Hollywood handled the big night. While she credits them for wearing lapel pins, Fishman says actors could have done more to vocally support their female counterparts.

Messing was joined by Eva Longoria in directly confronting E! talent about Catt Sadler's wage controversy. Fishman explains how she thinks Ryan Seacrest and Giuliana Rancic handled the firestorm.
