The GLAAD Media Awards seek to “honor media for fair, accurate, and inclusive representations of LGBTQ people and issues.” There will be two award ceremonies: one in Los Angeles on March 28 and another in New York City on May 4. Recently, it was announced that the Queen biopic Bohemian Rhapsody would be removed as an Outstanding Film—Wide Release nominee due to allegations of sexual assault made against the film’s director Bryan Singer.
