The nominations for radio, television, news and promotional materials during the 2007 season were announced today (Thursday, Dec. 13).
One of the nominations for Bergman, the Reva and David Logan Distinguished Professor of Investigative Journalism on campus, is for "The Enemy Within." That documentary detailed the federal government's multi-billion-dollar domestic counterterrorism efforts five years after 9/11 and examined whether the country is better prepared to prevent another catastrophic attack.
His other two nominations are for parts one and three of "News War," a four-part "Frontline" documentary series co-produced by the Graduate School of Journalism. It examined the political, cultural, legal and economic forces challenging the news media today.
Ten current and former UC Berkeley Graduate School of Journalism students worked on "The Enemy Within." Fifteen current and former students contributed to "News War."
