Critics unite to promote equality in media

Founded in June 2019, Critics Groups for Equality in Media (CGEM) is a professional coalition seeking to improve awareness of the value of women, people of color, LGBTQ and disabled journalists who cover the worlds of film and television. CGEM is currently comprised of five national critics organizations that champion underrepresented yet influential voices in entertainment journalism.

CGEM seeks to improve engagement with studios, networks, PR firms and other entertainment organizations, push for better pay and representation among media outlets on behalf of the groups’ members, and nurture next-generation voices in entertainment journalism.
