Simon Bucks, Chair of the RTS Television Journalism Awards, said: "The quality of the entries this year was the highest I can remember, a reflection of an immense and challenging twelve months for all news providers. There were so many huge and important stories, covered across the board with dedication, integrity, skill and enterprise. The result was a wide range of first-class entries, any one of which would be a brilliant winner in its category, further highlighting that the Television Journalism Awards remain the Gold Standard in outstanding video journalism.”
