Detroit Free Press Wins First Emmy

“Just two years ago, the Detroit Free Press, a daily newspaper in Detroit, Michigan, began to introduce its photographers to a new medium. Video was unfamiliar to the staff; after all, until the dawn of the 21st century, motion pictures had no home with print media. A few hundred short video documentaries and about a year and a half later, the staff found themselves nominated for the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences’ prestigious Emmy award. The newspaper submitted six entries for consideration, and while three were nominated, the “Michigan Marines: Band of Brothers” video series produced for www.freep.com received the Emmy award.”
