A lawsuit has been filed against Penske Media Corporation and Eldridge Industries, alleging a fraudulent scheme to acquire the Golden Globe Awards. The plaintiffs, members of the Hollywood Foreign Press, claim that Penske and Todd Boehly orchestrated a boycott and backlash against the awards show to devalue it, enabling them to purchase it at a lower price. The suit further alleges deception regarding the sale and misuse of California's nonprofit laws, seeking at least $150 million in damages and the dissolution of the acquisition agreement. AI
