NBC Says It Will Not Air the Golden Globes in 2022
The New York Times
The group behind the awards, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, has been under pressure for its lack of Black members and its financial practices.
NBCUniversal announced Monday that it would not broadcast the 2022 Golden Globes, an abrupt blow to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organization that puts on the film and television awards show. The association relies on the money the network pays for the rights to broadcast the ceremony, and NBC’s move throws the future of the show into doubt. The group of roughly 86 journalists came under intense scrutiny as investigations uncovered, among other things, its lack of diversity and its system of compensating members for their work on committees. Last week the association approved changes that included increasing its membership by 50 percent over the next year and a half and hiring diversity consultants.More Related News
