ANNOUNCED BY THE NATIONAL ACADEMY OF TELEVISION ARTS & SCIENCES
Winners to be announced on September 21st

Barbara Walters to Receive Lifetime Achievement Honors
CNN Documentary Unit to Receive President’s Award
New York, N.Y. – July 14, 2009 (revised 8.06.09) – Nominations for the 30th Annual News and Documentary Emmy®
Awards were announced today by the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS). The News &
Documentary Emmy® Awards will be presented on Monday, September 21 at a ceremony at Frederick P. Rose Hall,
Home of Jazz at Lincoln Center, located in the Time Warner Center in New York City. The event will be attended by
more than 1000 television and new media industry executives, news and documentary producers and journalists.
Emmy® Awards will be presented in 33 categories, including Breaking News, Investigative Reporting, Outstanding
Interview, and Best Documentary, among others.
This year’s Lifetime Achievement honoree is Barbara Walters, one of the most acclaimed correspondents in the history
of television news, and creator and co-host of ABC’s The View. Ms. Walters’ distinguished and groundbreaking career
includes over 30 years at ABC News and 15 years on NBC’s Today Show. At ABC she became the first woman to cohost the network news, and served as the longtime co-host and chief correspondent of 20/20. Ms. Walters has
interviewed every American President and First Lady since Richard Nixon. She has also hosted numerous primetime
specials, including the top-rated Barbara Walters Specials.
CNN Productions—the documentary unit of CNN—will receive the President’s Award for the network’s longstanding
commitment to long form documentaries. Since its inception in 1998 the award –winning documentary unit has
compiled an outstanding body of work. It has particularly distinguished itself in recent years with important
documentaries on genocide, religious extremism, the struggle for peace in Northern Ireland, and many other pressing
topics.
The numerical breakdown, by media entities, as compiled by the independent accountancy firm of Lutz and Carr, LLP,
