The
Hollywood Foreign Press Association is accused of ‘ethical lapses’ and failing to maintain sufficient diversity according to an investigation by the LA Times
The Hollywood Foreign Press Association (HFPA), the body that organises and votes on the Golden Globe awards, has been accused of “ethical lapses” and of failing to maintain a sufficiently diverse membership.
An investigation by the LA Times claims that the nonprofit body paid members large sums, nearly $2m in total, for tasks such as serving on committees and watching films and that many of its members have only tenuous careers as journalists.
