Congratulations to Senior Journalist for BBC News at Six and Ten, Felicity Baker (Class of 2002) who has won a British Journalism Award for her work at BBC News with colleague Noor Nanji on the Gregg Wallace investigation. The judges said: “This was a strong exclusive, much followed up, and a great example of a news organisation holding itself to account.”
The 14th annual British Journalism Awards were revealed at a gala dinner held at London’s Hilton Bankside on Thursday 11 December. The winners were chosen by 70 independent British Journalism Awards judges who whittled down more than 600 entries from national newspapers, TV, radio, podcasts, regional newsbrands, specialist websites and newsletter-based start-ups.
Press Gazette editor-in-chief and chairman of the judges Dominic Ponsford introduced the awards by saying:
“These are the most important awards in the world because they celebrate the people defending reality itself.”
Congratulations Felicity!
