好莱坞外国记者协会(HFPA)前成员已向美国加州联邦法院提起诉讼,指控Penske Media及其所有者Jay Penske、Eldridge Industries和首席执行官Todd Boehly在2023年收购金球奖时存在欺诈行为1。原告方声称被告方策划了针对金球奖的抵制运动以压低其估值,隐瞒了Penske在交易中的参与角色,并涉嫌违反反垄断法1。HFPA寻求至少1.5亿美元的赔偿,并要求法院撤销HFPA解散协议1。
金球奖具有80年的历史1。2021年《洛杉矶时报》的调查披露HFPA的投票成员中仅有一名黑人1。随后NBC于2022年拒绝播放金球奖颁奖典礼1。Penske Media于2023年完成收购后,将金球奖转播权转入CBS1。Penske Media拥有《Variety》《Deadline》和《好莱坞报道者》等媒体资产1。Todd Boehly同时担任切尔西足球俱乐部和洛杉矶道奇队的部分所有者1。
Former members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association have filed a lawsuit against Penske Media, its owner Jay Penske, Eldridge Industries, and CEO Todd Boehly, accusing them of orchestrating a fraudulent scheme to acquire the Golden Globes in 2023.1 The plaintiffs allege that the defendants deliberately orchestrated a boycott campaign targeting the Golden Globes to devalue the awards show, concealed Penske's involvement in the transaction, and violated antitrust laws.1 The HFPA is seeking at least $150 million in damages and asking the court to void the HFPA dissolution agreement that facilitated the acquisition.1
The Golden Globes, an 80-year-old awards institution, faced significant reputational challenges following a 2021 Los Angeles Times investigation that revealed the HFPA had only one Black member among its ranks.1 In response to these diversity concerns, NBC refused to broadcast the Golden Globes ceremony in 2022.1 Following Penske Media's acquisition, the awards show transitioned to CBS for its broadcast.1 Penske Media owns several prominent entertainment publications, including Variety, Deadline, and The Hollywood Reporter.1 Boehly is also a partial owner of Chelsea Football Club and the Los Angeles Dodgers.1
