Frewin, McCall and Joel Mervis Awards 2020 postponed
The Publishers Support Services (PSS) have announced that the Frewin, McCall and Joel Mervis Awards 2020 will not take place currently due to the nature of their judging. The awards honour newspaper excellence in advertising, printing and production, layout and typography and the balanced use of pictures and graphics, are not able to take place currently due to the nature of their judging.
A spokesperson for the PSS said: "Covid-19 has affected every part of our society, including, and especially so in many cases, the newspaper industry. As such the virus has meant that the PSS cannot in good conscience bring a jury together to judge these awards and therefore we have had to make the very difficult decision to postpone them."
Meanwhile, Standard Bank's Sikuvile Journalism Awards will accept entries from 1 June to 15 July, with the virtual awards ceremony tentatively scheduled for 15 October.
