FOXNews.com - Hollywood Foreign Press Cuts Charitable Donations, Blames Writers Guild - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment: "Last week the Foreign Press — composed of about 80 members, some of whom aren’t foreign and many of whom aren’t press — gave out its annual donations. In 2007, for example, they gave out $1,125,800.

This year, though, the number was cut to $750,000. The reason? The HFPA says it was because they lost that $6 million fee. In other words, as I predicted, the Golden Globes are blaming the writers for cutting their donations."
