Golden Globes no more - Kent Ninomiya

Kent Ninomiya - Who says writers don't have pull? The writers go out on strike and bring the mighty Golden Globes to their knees. It wasn't surprising to hear that politically active actors like George Clooney refused to cross picket lines and attend the awards show. However when enough selfish celebrities jumped on the bandwagon and it was enough of a boycott to call off the whole show... that was a shock. A lot of people are losing a lot of money without the Golden Globes. Remember, it's the warm up for the Academy Awards... the Superbowl for the movie industry. Is it too far fetched to imagine a canceled Academy Awards show due to the writers strike? I didn't think the Golden Globes would fall. If indeed the Golden Globes are a warm up for the Academy Awards then prepare yourself. There's a lot more money involved with the Oscars. If that's not a motivation to settle the strike then I don't know what is. Kent Ninomiya
