RT was showered with praise on Thursday, capturing the Golden Nymph for Best 24-hour News Program at the Monte Carlo Television Festival for its coverage of the Chelyabinsk meteorite explosion earlier this year.

“It’s extremely gratifying to be recognized by your peers, and
I am very proud of all that our network has achieved at its
relatively young age,”
said Margarita Simonyan, RT’s
editor-in-chief. “This award, first and foremost, is a credit
to our correspondents, whose tireless efforts made it possible
for viewers all around the world to learn the details of this
historic event.”


Founded in 1961, the festival is one of the oldest and most
prestigious in the world. The jury, staffed with editors from the
world’s leading news networks, picked RT’s entry for best live
coverage of an event as it unfolds ahead of CNN, Al Jazeera and
Sky News.

When a blinding ball of light unexpectedly appeared in the
morning sky in Chelyabinsk on February 15 only to explode seconds
later, RT was the only international channel to show almost
instant live coverage, with all other broadcasters relying on its
feed. By coincidence, a documentary crew had been filming near
the city, and was able to film the impact of the shock waves from
the blast (which injured over 7,000 people) and the reactions of
locals minutes after the event.



RT also immediately began collecting footage of the explosion,
caused by a 9,000 ton asteroid, mostly captured on dashboard cams
of passing drivers, and uploading the footage on the internet.
The video of the entry from different angles became an instant
viral hit, and has since been seen more than 38 million times on
YouTube alone.



In the studio, the team broke off from its standard schedule to
broadcast live interviews with witnesses and scientists,
discussing the unusual cosmic occurrence, which could not have
been predicted in advance.

Qatar-based network Al Jazeera had been nominated for its
coverage of protests in the Muslim world following the release of
the YouTube film Innocence of Muslims, while CNN was put forward
for the live reporting on the escape of blind Chinese civil
rights activist Chen Guangchen to the US embassy in Beijing.

RT, which recently became the first news channel to attract 1
billion views on video-sharing network YouTube, was also
nominated for a Golden Nymph last year, but this marks its first
win at the festival.

RT's 'Occupy' coverage nominated for Emmy news award

RT 2012-08-22
RT has been nominated for the International Emmy Award in the news category for its coverage of the Occupy Wall Street movement which began in New York last year. RT was one the first channels to thoroughly report about OWS.

RT has been closely following the OWS movement and continues to report on their domestic and global developments from its Moscow and Washington studios in English, Arabic and Spanish.
Two years ago RT became the first Russian channel to be the finalist for the Emmy award in the news category.

“We are very happy and proud to once again become the only candidate from Russia to be nominated for this major television award,” said RT's Editor-in-Chief Margarita Simonyan. She added that the channel hopes to win this time.

RT is one of the four nominees in the news category announced by the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences on Tuesday. The other three are Brazil’s TV Globo Jornal Nacional for coverage of heavy rains and landslides in the mountainous region of Rio de Janeiro in January 2011; Japan’s NHK for coverage of the 2011 Japanese earthquake and tsunami; and Qatar’s Al Jazeera for reporting on the Libyan uprising and the fall of Tripoli.

The Academy, which was founded in 1969, is a membership-based organization promoting excellence in international television programming. It unites representatives of over 500 leading media companies from over 50 countries.

The Emmy award is considered to be the television equivalent of an Oscar.
"The 2012 nominees present a powerful showcase of the human, political and socio-economic drama unfolding daily around the world," said Bruce Paisner, president and CEO of the Academy, in a news release.
