	British Press Awards - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The British Press Awards is an annual ceremony that celebrates the best of British journalism.
		Established in the 1970s, honours are voted on by a panel of journalists and newspaper executives.
		A financially lucrative part of the Press Gazette's business[1], they have been described as "the Oscars of British journalism", or less flatteringly, "The Hackademy Awards".

	Award of warning for the press in the art of prize fighting - [Sunday Herald] (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-01)
		Last Friday, 11 national newspaper editors issued a joint statement threatening to withdraw from the British Press Awards after this year’s ceremony was marred by a tirade from guest speaker Bob Geldof criticising press coverage of the situation in Africa.
		Although the Press Gazette, which organises the British awards, insists its system is scrupulously honest, there are differences between the two processes that make it easier to set apart the Scottish awards.
		For the British awards, both stages are judged by representatives chosen by the editors of eligible newspapers (two for dailies and one for Sundays).

		It was his antics at several successive ceremonies that are considered to have brought the awards into disrepute and though it is acknowledged that he has been kept well away from all the arrangements for the coming event, his shadowy involvement in the Gazette's content remains contentious.
		In order to overcome possible drunken behaviour, the Gazette's awards will be presented early in the evening at the ceremony, to be held in the evening of March 27 at the Dorchester in London.
		But most of the editors later agreed with the Press Gazette's viewpoint, that there was no better way of gaining proper publicity for the press awards without doing so through the trade magazine.

	The Fifth Estate: British press 'carnival of hate'
		A rebel union of 11 senior editors is threatening to boycott the British Press Awards saying they have lost credibility, according to the Guardian.
		They argued that the awards "brought little credit to the industry or to the newspapers who win them" and said the profession had been devalued by the naming of the News of the World as newspaper of the year.
		At present the awards are organised by the trade magazine, Press Gazette, which depends on the profits from the event to keep afloat.

	Many approaches to the same issue. By Sarah Lyall
		The British Press Awards have been called "the Academy Awards of British journalism," Britain's answer to the Pulitzers.
		Of the four nominees at my table, one was awarded the Travel Writer of the Year award ("Whee-hee!" he called, endearingly, from the stage); one lost out on the Reporter of the Year prize; and two others failed to win the Food and Drink Writer of the Year award.
		The final award was for Newspaper of the Year, a prize that has proved to be somewhat controversial in the past.

	British press are rude, rowdy and belligerent, says editor's widow :: Freelance UK
		Lady Cudlipp, a former journalist herself, made her feelings known on the state of the nation’s tabloid and broadsheet media after being invited to the British Press Awards to present a tribute award honouring her late husband.
		Reflecting on the ceremony, she said that the event threatened to further undermine public confidence in the national press, at a time when professionals in the trade appear to suffer from a lack of pride in their job.
		However, her moment of commendation was upstaged when Bob Geldof seized the stage to savage the press, saying that there was a national failure to comprehensively report the troubles facing Africa.

		Also six months ago, the paper became the only national U.K. newspaper to print in full color, and the investment, at 80 million pounds, was hailed as the biggest transformation of the paper since it first appeared in 1821.
		But some industry figures believe that the British Press Awards were of less value this year because three of Britain's biggest newspaper groups - the Telegraph Group, Associated Newspapers and Express Newspapers - refused to participate because of negative press surrounding the awards last year.

		The Ethnic Multicultural Media Awards (EMMA) begun in 1998 and was previously known as the Ethnic Minority Media Awards.
		As with the MOBO awards (which now describes itself meaning all types of music from urban culture), this significant name change also marks a significant shift in the ethnic identity of nominees and winners.
		However, with Bobby Syed falling into that trap set by those who resent British minorities celebrating their culture by declaring that ‘We British cannot only have award winners based on the colour of their skin, otherwise we are guilty of racism’, it appears there is little hope for the ailing Award ceremony.
