Hollywood Writers Might Write NAACP Awards Show
Looks like the NAACP Image Awards might be the only awards show the Hollywood writers write for.
Reps for the Writers Guild of America told the Associated Press that the organization will not likely stop striking to write for next month’s Grammy’s or the Oscar’s, but might for the NAACP event.
The AP reported:
The Guild said it would allow its members to work on the NAACP Image Awards and would not picket the Feb. 14 show at the Shrine Auditorium.
The awards presented by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People honor those who promote diversity in the arts. Awards in 44 categories, including movies, TV and literature, will be presented in the ceremony broadcast live on Fox.
“Because of the historic role the NAACP has played in struggles like ours, we think this decision is appropriate to jointly achieve our goals,” guild leader Patric Verrone said at a news conference.
