Wow, this is such an incredible surprise! This Emmy nomination really belongs to the phenomenal team at CNN. Especially the small, but mighty team behind the camera in China, whose faces and names the world does not see. The environment for journalists in China is at its worst
The #NewsEmmys nominees in Outstanding Emerging Journalist are @YousurAlhlou @nytimes, @ellisonbarber @NBCNews, @simplyzinhle @NBCNews, @ashan @ABC, @selinawangtv @CNN

It was an honour to work with @jonsnowC4 and to work on the show, I just couldn’t believe I got to sit opposite him as the show’s guest producer when I started. Once a C4news teamer, always one. Thank you Jon for everything you taught me - legend
