We are calling for entries for work published or aired in an ethnic media organization of any size serving an ethnic/newcomer community in Southern California -- between October 1, 2011 and December 1, 2012 [within Oct. 1, 2011-Dec. 31, 2011, Jan. 2012-Dec. 1, 2012]. For the 2012 NAM Awards for Southern California, we are inaugurating several new approaches that reflect the rapid changes in California's media landscape. NAM will consider all entries in English and in-language; and across all media platforms - in print, online and broadcast [TV & Radio] as a single pool in all of the News Beats [NB1-NB6] and Spotlight Reports [SR 1- SR6] categories. The news beat categories include Outstanding Reporting on Governance & 2012 Elections Coverage, Outstanding Reporting on Civil Liberties Issues in Ethnic Communities, Outstanding Reporting on Inter-Ethnic, Inter-Racial and Inter-Religious Relations, and many others. The spotlight reports categories honor special news reporting on 2012 news events or trends including Outstanding Reporting on California's Economic Divide; Outstanding Reporting on International Affairs, and others including a Community Advocate Award that will honor one ethnic media organization for its public advocacy on a specific issue impacting its own community and/or California. We are also maintaining a separate track of awards for outstanding photojournalism, outstanding community reporting for radio and outstanding community reporting for television.
