Suicide Reveals Strife in Group Behind the Globes
"They basically took a livelihood away from a guy who was out there trying to earn a living," Mr. O'Kane said. "It led completely, directly to what ended up happening to Nick." ... According to members of the association, Mr. Douglas, who was also an aspiring actor, was disciplined ... mainly for having sold a picture of himself and Tom Selleck to The Globe for $50, which is against the group's rules, and for having taken unopened beers from a reception thrown by MGM ... [recently, Philip Berk, the association's president] wrote a letter of apology to the actor Brendan Fraser for having grabbed the actor's buttocks during a ceremony to announce a charitable contribution, though Mr. Berk said in an interview that he did no such thing and wrote the letter only to mollify the actor.
