The New York Festivals 2024 Radio Awards competition is open for entries today through January 31, 2024. New York Festivals Radio Awards SVP and executive director Rose Anderson says, “Our categories for investigative journalism and nonfiction series documentaries and social justice across all genres recognized how individual actions can change the world and the ability of the human spirit to triumph over adversity. Today’s storytellers are finding innovative ways to keep listeners informed, entertained, and engaged in our ever-changing and interconnected world so the New York Festivals Radio Awards has introduced eight new categories that encompass that robust creative spirit.” NYF’s new SciFi/Fantasy/Horror and Mystery Programs categories expand the Entertainment roster. Editorial/Viewpoint News Feature rounds out the journalism-based News Reports/Features category group providing a new outlook on current events, and Short Form Documentary offers additional opportunities to showcase distinctive points of view. New Podcast categories include Investigative Journalism Podcast and Mystery Podcast. New On-Air talent categories this year include News Correspondent/Reporter and Sports Correspondent/Reporter. For the second year, the National Press Club Award will go to the highest scoring entry in the News program categories Coverage of Breaking News Story, Coverage of Ongoing News Story, Nonfiction Series, and News Podcast.
