Globes group ousts ex-president over his Black Lives Matter email

A former president of the organization that hosts the Golden Globes has been dropped from the group’s board sending an email that called Black Lives Matter a “hate movement.”

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association board said in an email Tuesday that Phil Berk is no longer a member of the organization. The decision comes hours after NBC – which telecasts the Globes – condemned Berk’s actions and called for his “immediate expulsion.”
