The Hollywood Foreign Press Association announced no media restrictions in advance of Sunday’s 2008 Golden Globes “News Conference.” Either that was a sign that they've finally embraced new media or they needed coverage badly. The Writers Guild of America’s (WGA) 12,000 members are still on strike after three long months. There is no sign that the strike will be ended anytime soon. It's resulted in the stripped down, no glitter version of the Golden Globes. If you were on the picket line and missed the broadcast; don’t worry you didn’t miss much. It could have been shot in front of a green screen with a virtual curtain and a cheap template to frame the various scenes. This was a new low for Hollywood. With tonight’s broadcast being a complete disaster everyone is wondering; will the Oscars be next? Let's hope things get resolved soon. Hollywood is quickly losing its luster.
