Palestinian journalist Bisan Owda wins Emmy Award despite calls to have her nomination rescinded
Palestinian journalist Bisan Owda has won an Emmy award for her ’I’m Bisan from Gaza and I’m Still Alive’ project, which documents her life under Israel’s brutal military onslaught in the territory.
The project - carried out in collaboration with AJ - won the prize for Outstanding Hard News Feature Story: Short Form during the 45th Annual News & Documentary Emmys.
The Palestinian journalist’s win comes days after the Television Academy rejected a campaign by pro-Israel personalities requesting that Owda’s nomination gets rescinded over bogus claims that she had ties to “a terrorist organisation“.
Owda rose to social media fame following the outbreak of Israel’s genocidal war in the Gaza Strip, which has killed at least 41,495 Palestinians since October 7.
She currently boasts over four million followers on Instagram, as well as a sizeable following on X and TikTok.
The journalist, who is in her twenties, has shared semi-regular videos on social
