All Four Soaps Threaten Daytime Emmy Boycott
All four daytime dramas — B&B, DAYS, GH and Y&R — have banded together in order to demand changes in the voting and accounting practices for the Daytime Emmys. A letter to the Academy that was obtained by deadline.com and sent by reps from the shows, states, “We are disheartened by the recent events involving NATAS and the 45th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards competition and the decisions made by NATAS regarding the Digital categories of Supporting Actor and Guest Star.reps for all four soaps. We feel the time is appropriate to bring to your attention our serious concerns about the Daytime Emmy Awards competition.” The letter also revealed that the shows “are united in their decision not to participate in the Daytime Emmy Awards moving forward until these important issues are resolved.” For all the details, including the changes the shows are seeking and what brought about this unprecedented move, check out the scoop at: https://deadline.com/2018/07/daytime-emmys-daytime-drama-series-threaten-boycott-awards-voting-changes-patrika-darbo-1202436912/https://deadline.com/2018/07/daytime-emmys-daytime-drama-series-threaten-boycott-awards-voting-changes-patrika-darbo-1202436912/
