This marks the first time in the Golden Globes’ 75-year history that a donation has been announced during the live broadcast.
“Being an association of journalists,” said the press association’s president Meher Tatna, “we are keenly aware of its importance, especially today.”
Truth is under attack – economically and politically – and
now is the time to defend it.
We’ll use this money to support the investigative journalism you know us for – bringing accountability on a global scale.
Our unique style of collaborative journalism, which brings together giant teams of journalists worldwide, allows us to do this in ways never seen before.
This generous donation will allow us to bring scrutiny to repressive and dangerous regimes and to systems designed to channel more and more of the world's resources into the hands of the rich and powerful. It will help us serve the public’s need for openness and transparency.
I encourage you to share this news with your friends and continue to support collaborative cross-border journalism like ours.
Thank you again to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. Here’s to more support like this!
Thank you,
Gerard Ryle
