"Membership Conflict: HCA and CCA Clash Over Dual Memberships Amid Misconduct Allegations"

The Critics Choice Association has implemented a new policy prohibiting members of the Hollywood Creative Alliance from maintaining membership in the CCA due to evidence of improper influence on Critics Choice Awards voting. This decision follows a message to CCA members citing a representative of HCA improperly suggesting influence on voting, prompting action to protect the integrity of the awards. The 2024 Critics Choice Awards saw "Oppenheimer" and television series "The Bear," "Succession," and "Beef" as top winners.
