Summary
Award Season is here! To kick it off, the Golden Globe nominations were announced yesterday. The ceremony will be broadcast once again in January after not being televised last year due to a boycott over claims of both payola and a disturbing lack of diversity. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association - the organization behind the Globes - promises that they are changing their ways. But that’s debatable - the list of nominations for Best Film Director had no women on it. Adding to the controversy surrounding the Golden Globes will be one notable no-show… Best Actor nominee Brendan Fraser. He is boycotting the Globes over his claims that he was sexually assaulted by a former HFPA president. So are the Golden Globes really changing their ways, or is it just a lot of talk?

| 1:03.2 | aka H.F. P. A. H.F. A. And NBC refused to broadcast this because of the |
| 1:09.0 | H.F. A's utter lack of diversity and so now H.FPA is getting another shot but after yesterday's nominations it looks like |
| 1:18.8 | still missing the mark by a mile. Yeah like like, I'm not surprised ever, unfortunately. |
