NBC News:
The sexual misconduct allegations roiling Hollywood dominated the Golden Globes on Sunday, with host Seth Meyers taking aim at scandal-tainted men and several prizes going to actresses who played strong, empowered women.
"Good evening, ladies and remaining gentlemen," Meyers said in his monologue, nodding to the dozens of men — producers, actors, directors — felled by allegations of harassment and assault.
People/人物:
Hollywood is using the Golden Globes red carpet as a platform to protest sexual harassment. Stars including Meryl Streep, Reese Witherspoon, Eva Longoria and more are stepping out in statement-making style to support the Time’s Up movement, with the goal to banish harassment and foster equality and empowerment in the industry and outside of it. The initiative led to the launch of a legal defense fund, which already raised more than $16 million. And thanks to Sunday’s Golden Globes coverage, that number will continue to grow.
