The Radio Television Digital News Association handed out their annual awards over the weekend and CTV Windsor is the recipient of three awards for journalism.
In October, Stefanie Masotti brought us a two part series on human trafficking. Tamas Miko shared how he spent months living in fear, huddled at night in a dark unfinished basement, with no showers, no toilet and unable to speak English. He was being forced to work in the construction industry, 14 to 16 hours a day for no pay.
The short feature won the coveted Edward R Murrow award.
In November, Sacha Long produced a three-part feature on living blind, featuring a couple who were both blind and their three young kids who could all see.
The feature took a look at some of the challenges faced on a daily basis and how they cope with them together, as a family.
It won the Adrienne Clarkson Diversity Award.
Christie Bezaire won the Dave Rogers award for a short feature.
It took an in-depth look at the history of the minivan and how it saved Chrysler at the time. The phenomenal success led to the introduction of a third shift, and 1500 new jobs during the recession.
CTVWindsor’s sister radio station AM800 picked up the Byron Macgregor Award for best radio newscast in a medium market.
It's the 10th time in 11 years AM800 has taken the award.
