The Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which organises the annual Golden Globes, said it will present the awards for television and film in January despite US television network NBC deciding in May to no longer air the show.


The group's members also were accused of making sexist and racist remarks and soliciting favours from celebrities and studios.


The association said in a news release that nominations would be announced on December 13 and that it would host the 79th annual Golden Globes ceremony on January 9.


The group did not make any announcements about whether the show would be televised.


The group in May agreed to recruit more Black members and make other changes, and in July banned its members from receiving gifts and free trips from movie studios and TV networks seeking to secure awards for their shows and stars.


The Golden Globes ceremony, attended by A-list stars and industry executives, established itself as one of the biggest annual Hollywood awards shows in the run-up to the Oscars.


But it has been under close scrutiny following an investigation published in February by the Los Angeles Times which showed that the group of 87 journalists had no Black members.


Actress Scarlett Johansson and other critics including Netflix, Amazon Studios, WarnerMedia and dozens of Hollywood's top publicity companies have said they would no longer work with the group unless it makes far-reaching changes. — Reuters
