Nine’s journalism was recognised at the prestigious 2022 Kennedy Awards last night, with Nick McKenzie named as Journalist of the Year for his series of investigations for The Sydney Morning Herald, The Age and 60 Minutes.

The awards were held last night with a gala dinner, with Nine winning eight awards across its publishing, television and digital divisions – and showcased the power of Nine’s cross-platform investigative reporting, with McKenzie also winning the Outstanding Finance Reporting category alongside 60 Minutes producer Joel Tozer, while Adele Ferguson and Tozer were awarded for Outstanding Consumer Affairs Reporting.

Tom Steinfort’s brave reporting and interview with Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky earned him and the 60 Minutes team the award for Outstanding Foreign Correspondent, while Brooke Campbell from nine.com.au took out Outstanding Team Player or Mentor.

Rounding off the night of awards was the Herald’s Alexandra Smith and Lucy Cormack winning Outstanding Political Reporting, and Adele Ferguson collecting her second award for Outstanding Investigative Reporting.

Congratulations to all Nine’s journalists.
