The winners of Australian journalism’s highest honours, the Walkley Awards, were announced tonight in Sydney. The 66th Walkley Awards for ‘Excellence in Journalism,’ were presented in 30 categories.

The Walkley Foundation’s chief executive, Shona Martyn, said: “The Walkley Awards are, without doubt, the highlight of the year for Australian journalists. After COVID-19 forced a virtual ceremony in 2020 and the postponement of the presentation of the 2021 awards, it is brilliant that we have finally been able to celebrate these achievements in person. Hearty congratulations to all the 2021 winners and finalists.”
