Cameron Clarke, editor of The Drum, said: “As a journalist, these awards are close to my heart. The media business is under scrutiny like never before and in today’s age of information – and often misinformation – overload, it’s right that we champion the standard-bearers of great, trusted journalism.
“That means recognizing outstanding storytellers but also rewarding the innovators finding new paths to get their stories in front of readers and viewers. I’m excited to see not only great examples of editorial campaigning, but also the ingenious ways media brands big and small are making this vital work hit home.”
Entrants will be hoping to follow in the footsteps of previous recipients of the awards including the New York Times, BBC, India Times and Reuters.
