Time's Up has responded to the HFPA's commitment to reform the organization, saying 'The right words are not enough. The clock is ticking'

“These are the initial steps we will take over the next 60 days and we will carry out further actions based on recommendations that come from these initial reviews and assessments,” the statement said.

The organization also wrote that it would be increasing support for internship, mentorship and scholarship programs for Black and other underrepresented students interested in international journalism. Another reform will be mandating annual anti-racism and unconscious bias education and sexual harassment training for every member of the HFPA, the statement said.

The HFPA will engage a “third-party, independent law firm” to create a method for members, partners, vendors and artists to report violations of ethical standards or code violations with “clear and serious consequences” for those in violation. The Time’s Up Organization, which had been tweeting about the diversity controversy with the #TimesUpGlobes message,soon after the HFPA’s, saying “So NBCUniversal, Dick Clark Productions and the HFPA just declared that they have a plan to fix problems they’ve ignored for decades. We’re not so sure.”

“On behalf of the many artist who look to us to hold the HFPA’s feet to the fire on the racism, disrespect, misogyny and alleged corrupt financial dealings of the Golden Globes, we need to see specific details, timetables for change, and firm commitments. The right words are not enough. The clock is ticking.”

HFPA Promises to Diversify in Wake of Controversy, But Time's Up Demands More SpecificsThe HFPA wrote a lengthy message on Saturday noting that will, effective immediately, institute 'transformational change.' Can't wait. The woker the better! Maybe AOC will host next year?! I like the proposal that NBC simply stops airing the very irrelevant Golden Globes altogether. Even if they triple the membership (with minorities), it won't be enough to salvage this sketchy, pretentious, likely corrupt, alleged-excuse for a non-profit organization. No, let's demand some specifics from Times Up. To be an HFPA member you must be a foreign reporter writing each year about the U.S. entertainment industry, living in LA, accredited by the MPAA. So they demand that an invite go to...WHOM exactly?
