A group led by former Motion Picture Academy President Cheryl Boone Isaacs has made a multi-million bid to buy the #GoldenGlobes. latimes.com/entertainment-… 
The offer includes $120,000 annual salaries for Hollywood Foreign Press Assn. members guaranteed for five years and a one-time $100,000 “Pandemic relief grant.” It also establishes a $5 million a year endowment. latimes.com/entertainment-…
The group, which goes by the name Pacific Coast Entertainment, would “obtain all rights and privileges associated with the ownership of the Golden Globe Awards Show,” as well “intellectual property privileges.” latimes.com/entertainment-…
Last year, NBC dropped the broadcast of the 2022 #GoldenGlobes, a contingent of powerful publicists boycotted the organization, and major studios cut ties after an investigation by The Times raised questions about the group’s ethical and financial lapses. latimes.com/entertainment-…
The Times’ investigation also revealed that not one of the then 87 members was Black.
Since then, the HFPA has added 21 new members, six of them Black, and hired a chief diversity officer. latimes.com/entertainment-…

“While we are waiting on formal indication that the HFPA has instituted a fair and transparent process whereby we may present our partnership proposal to you in person, we recognize time is of the essence,” Isaacs wrote in an email to the HFPA on Monday. latimes.com/entertainment-…
The compensation plan is likely to raise further questions about the HFPA. As outlined in the deal, the remuneration of members will essentially make them employees of the HFPA and therefore paid Golden Globes voters. latimes.com/entertainment-…
