The Hollywood Reporter landed three noms this year, including best website/mobile site in the category of general desktop and mobile sites, entertainment. THR’s other two noms were for video content, including one for “Drama Actors Roundtable: Pedro Pascal, Evan Peters, Kieran Culkin, Damson Idris & More” (general video, interview/talk show), moderated by Lacey Rose, executive editor, TV, and produced by Jason Rovou and Lesley Corral; and another for “The Hollywood Reporter Predicts: Issa Rae and ‘Rap Sh!t’ Cast on the 2024 Grammys” (general video, music), conceived by senior music editor Mesfin Fekadu and produced by Fekadu and Neha Joy. The noms come on the heels of THR being named best website last year at the 65th Annual SoCal Journalism Awards and again at the 16th annual National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards, among other wins.
Webby winners will be announced April 23 and will be celebrated at a ceremony hosted by Amber Ruffin at Cipriani Wall Street in New York on May 13. Fans will be able to watch highlights, including show’s signature five-word acceptances speeches, by following @TheWebbyAwards across Instagram and TikTok.
Nominees are selected by the International Academy of Digital Arts & Sciences, which counts among its members Google’s Marian Croak; Hello Sunshine’s Sarah Harden; artist and actor Tobe Nwigwe; Shigetaka Kurita, artist and “father of emojis”; Duolingo’s Severin Hacker; image architect Law Roach; Meta’s Yann LeCun; Roxane Gay; Quinta Brunson; Questlove; and more.
All nominees are eligible to win two awards: The Webby Award, selected by the Academy, and The Webby People’s Voice Award, voted on by the online community. The Webbys also will hand out an award for the Webby Media Company of the Year, given to the company that performs best across all categories. In addition, the Webby Podcast Company of the Year will recognize the organization with the most overall nominations and wins across the podcast categories.
“This year’s nominees represent the very best in innovation and creativity on the internet,” said Claire Graves, president of The Webby Awards. “Individually the work is outstanding and collectively they represent a commitment from brands, creators and technology companies to human-centric design and storytelling.”
