KZN Regional winners were announced at a ceremony in Durban on 4th August. A cash prize of
R5 000 and a certificate is awarded to the winner in each regional category. Regional
winners will automatically be entered into the overall national competition at Vodaworld
in Midrand on 18th October 2004.
Radio Feature
Who says "Video Killed the Radio Star"? In the category of Radio Feature the
judges were confronted with not one, but two top class examples of excellence.The insert,
Iran and the 'Givers of Life' broadcast on East Coast Radio, combines excellent reporting,
interviews, background sound and being-there ambience. The expose, Department of Welfare
Corruption, broadcast on Radio Khwezi, raises investigative reporting to the powerful tool
it ought to be. For outstanding services to reality-radio, the presentation for Radio
Feature is shared between Anisa Ussuph of East Coast Radio and Zwelandile Ngidi of Radio
Khwezi.
