NBC Won't Air 2022 Golden Globes Amid HFPA Controversy
HuffPost
The network said it was "hopeful" it would "be in a position to air the show in January 2023.”
NBC on Monday said it will not air the 2022 Golden Globe Awards due to ongoing controversy with the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the organization responsible for the award show. Ahead of the awards’ 78th annual ceremony, which aired in February, the Los Angeles Times published multiple controversial reports about the HFPA, outlining ethical lapses and a lack of diverse representation within the group, including zero Black members. “We continue to believe that the HFPA is committed to meaningful reform. However, change of this magnitude takes time and work, and we feel strongly that the HFPA needs time to do it right. As such, NBC will not air the 2022 Golden Globes,” NBC said in a statement Monday, according to Variety. “Assuming the organization executes on its plan, we are hopeful we will be in a position to air the show in January 2023.”More Related News
