BBC News website wins graphics awards: The BBC News website has won top prizes at an awards ceremony celebrating the world's best visual journalism. A range of election and politics content was awarded a 'best in show' prize and gold medal at the Society for News Design's annual Malofiej awards. BBC News Interactive editor, Steve Herrmann said: "The online resources we created for the election coverage were, I believe, second to none. "It means a lot to have won against such stiff competition." The winning package of content included the general election results map, swingometer, results index and poll tracker. Also included was the site's unique Thatcher years in statistics feature and the Born Abroad special on British immigration. Herrmann said both "showed quite simply that some stories can be told better by graphics than words". There was also an individual silver medal for the swingometer, an online version of the gadget used by Peter Snow on election night. (BBC Press Release 05.04.2006)
