GLAAD Chief Sarah Kate Ellis Speaks Out on New York Times Spending Exposé: ‘I’m the CEO, That’s All On Me’ (EXCLUSIVE)


GLAAD CEO Sarah Kate Ellis speaks out for the first time about a bombshell report from the New York Times alleging "lavish" spending at her nonprofit.

But now, it found itself the target of uncomfortable scrutiny and engulfed in one of the biggest controversies of its history after The New York Times published a blistering exposé accusing its chief executive, Sarah Kate Ellis, of “lavish” spending. The story reported that Ellis used GLAAD funds to upgrade her home, acquire a coveted vacation property and travel first class to posh confabs like the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. The Times story raised questions about the trappings of high-flying philanthropy, especially as it intersects with Hollywood (GLAAD hosts multiple annual awards shows that also serve has fundraisers and has honored the likes of Beyoncé and Jay-Z).
