McKinley Franklin editor Rotten Tomatoes is expanding its critics outreach and grant program after five years, the company announced Tuesday, adding three new beneficiary organizations, scholarships and mentorship for aspiring critics from underrepresented groups.
Over its first half-decade, Rotten Tomatoes estimates it has added more than 1,000 critics as part of the initiative. GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics, Gold House and the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) are the new entries. “We at GALECA: The Society of LGBTQ Entertainment Critics could not be prouder of the work we’ve done with our partners at Rotten Tomatoes.
Thanks to their generosity, together we’ve been able to support, nurture and fund important young voices among emerging critics through our Crimson Honors College Critics awards, which this year supported three queer-identifying women and non-binary critics with financial assistance to pursue their important work,” said Walt Hickey, president of GALECA.
With Gold House, Rotten Tomatoes will support its Futures Accelerator: Journalism mentorship program for API journalists and critics.
