The Royal Television Society (RTS) has launched the 2020 edition of the RTS Television Journalism Awards.

The awards, for both news and current affairs, seek to recognise creative and excellent journalism by organisations whose broadcasts are transmitted on a UK based platform or who create online video content from a UK production base.

They will be chaired by Simon Bucks, who was appointed by the RTS earlier this year, succeeding Sue Inglish.

Bucks said: “I am very proud to be chosen by the RTS to chair the RTS Television Journalism Awards – the most prestigious rewards for quality and achievement in video journalism. The introduction of the Digital category is a new departure for the Awards, recognising the growth of powerful and compelling content on non- traditional platforms.”
