Meanwhile Sunday's Jehan Casinader was awarded Broadcast Reporter of the Year and Best TV/Video Current Affairs, Short, for his feature Black Friday.

TVNZ's online news and current affairs platform Re: rounded out the Best TV/Video Current Affairs Category, winning the Long section for the feature Rediscovering Aotearoa: aroha/love .

The runner-ups for those categories were TVNZ's Seven Sharp for Harri Brown's story and Sunday's feature on The Numbers Game.

In other categories, Re: reporter Cass Marrett won Best Video Journalist - Junior, while Mava Enoka received the Peter M Acland Fellowship, which will see her undertake a placement at Al Jazeera international television network based in Kuala Lumpur.

The 1 NEWS design team won Best Artwork/Graphics, with their high-end augmented reality work featuring highly on 1 NEWS' news bulletins.

The major media awards were conducted remotely this year due to the Covid-19 gathering restrictions.

Other major categories include Newspaper of the Year and Website of the Year, both of which went to the New Zealand Herald.

RNZ AWARD WINNERS

SOURCE

Bradley backed up her recent win at the NZ Radio Awards with a win for Best feature writing - social issues, including health and education at the Voyagers, for her project Women struggle for treatment as ACC changes policy on perineal tears.

Judges said Bradley's feature on birth injuries "stood out for the high quality of its reporting, its comprehensive and unblinking coverage of a little reported issue and the real-world impact it had in bringing about changes to ACC legislation."

Sam Olley was named Best Junior Reporter, after being a finalist at the Radio Awards for Best News or Sports Journalist.

Judges said Olley was an "excellent storyteller on exclusive stories of national relevance including Whangārei hospital sewage leakage, initiating action from the prime minister".

They said she also "showed appreciation for the growing Aotearoa population covering a diverse range of stories and using various tools such as OIAs to give her angles a unique edge".

RNZ journalists were runners up in the Best Data Journalist, Best Reviewer, Feature Writer of the year and Best Podcast - Narrative or Serial categories.

The judges also made a special mention of the RNZ App, which was "by some margin ... the best app for the way readers can access audio or the written word. It is seamless to toggle between radio shows and stories".
