The International Academy of Television Arts and Sciences has named Editor-in-Chief of Al-Masry Al-Youm Abdel Latif El-Menawy as an Emmy Awards member.
Egyptian journalist El-Menawy is an author, columnist, and multimedia journalist who covered war zones and conflicts around the world.
He has served as an Emmy jury panel member in the news and documentary category for the past seven years.
El-Menawy said that television production, whether news or drama, has become a huge industry as important and creative as film, especially with the global boom in television networks and online streaming services, which made the competition for viewers even tougher.
The 2022 Emmy awards for the TV and drama category were announced during the 50th International Emmy Awards ceremony, with 60 nominees from 23 countries across 15 categories.
A British series won seven of the awards in the main categories, where the BBC UK thriller series Vigil picked up best drama series, while Sex Education won the Emmy Award for best comedy series.
