4The Golden Globe Awards are given out annually for excellence in film and television. The voters until 2023 were the members of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association: journalists and photographers who report on the American entertainment industry for predominantly non-American media. The first ceremony was held in 1944, though it only had awards for film. Television awards were added in 1956, with more categories added as time went on. Since 1973, the award ceremony has been held in January of each year (except in 2021, when it was delayed to February 28 due to the COVID-19 pandemic).

39KTTV in Los Angeles locally broadcast the ceremony until the HFPA made a nationwide deal with Creator/{{NBC}} in 1965. Following an FCC ruling, NBC stopped broadcasting the ceremony from 1968 until after 1974. In 1973, the HFPA reached a deal with Metromedia to air the ceremony telecast on all of its stations until 1978 when the 1978 edition was broadcasted by NBC. In 1980, the telecast [[ChannelHop hopped again]] to Creator/{{CBS}} which lasted two years. From 1983 to 1988 the telecast was syndicated to local television stations via Creator/DickClark Productions. By this time, DCP was responsible for producing and distributing the telecast. In 1989, DCP and the HFPA signed an agreement with [[Creator/{{TBS}} SuperStation TBS]] to carry the telecast until 1995, when both parties signed an agreement with NBC to carry the telecast once again. With a few extensions, the NBC agreement lasted until 2021 when the controversy regarding the HFPA happened. DCP decided not to produce the 2022 telecast because of this. In 2023, with DCP now owning the rights to the Golden Globe Awards, they signed an agreement with CBS to carry it once again.

41In 2021, it was announced that NBC would not air the following year's Golden Globe Awards as a result of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association's failure to enact reforms akin to other awards organizations, sparking a boycott from numerous actors (including Creator/ScarlettJohansson, Creator/MarkRuffalo and Creator/TomCruise) and organizations (including Creator/{{Netflix}}, Creator/{{Amazon|Studios}} and [[Creator/WarnerBrosDiscovery WarnerMedia]]). Though the nominations were announced on December 13, 2021, it was revealed that the announcement of winners would be done on social media instead. In 2023, the show returned to NBC as the HFPA was sold to investor Todd Boehly the year prior. That same year, the HFPA officially wound down its operations as the rights to the Golden Globe Awards property were sold to DCP, which as of that year, is in turn owned by Penske Media Eldridge, a joint venture between Penske Media Corporation and Boehly's holding company of Eldridge Industries. The HFPA's non-philanthropic activities were transferred to the Golden Globe Foundation. The voting body is now an international panel of journalists, initially numbering 300, that for the first time includes journalists working for US media. In all, 76 countries were represented in the new body's initial membership
