'Anderson Cooper 360' and National Geographic's 'The Rescue' were among the nominees.
The National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences (NATAS) has announced its nominees for the 2022 News and Documentary Emmy Awards, which will be presented in two different categories: news on Sept. 28 and documentary on Sept. 29.
Both ceremonies will take place at the Palladium Times Square in New York City.
”At a time when critical, monumental, and world-changing events are more immediately available and accessible than ever before, the work of the journalists and documentarians that bring us the truth of these stories is under tremendous assault. We honor these individuals’ courage and excellence of craft that allows each of us to be better informed and understanding of the issues of our day,” said Adam Sharp, NATAS president and CEO.

Sixty-four categories were announced on Thursday, and the National Academy will also give out two Lifetime Achievement Awards: to Judy Woodruff, anchor and managing editor of PBS NewsHour, for news; and Sir David Attenborough, biologist, humanist and filmmaker, for documentary.
ABC scored the most nominations with 39, followed by CNN with 37.
