British television award for Baghdad Blogger

From MediaGuardian: "Salam Pax, the former Guardian columnist whose internet diary gave the world a glimpse of Iraq before, during and after the war, has won a Royal Television Society award for the programmes he made with Guardian Films and Newsnight. The Baghdad Blogger began recording daily life in Baghdad in September 2002. His musings on pop music and the likelihood of being blown to pieces by allied bombs or murdered by Saddam's secret police captivated web surfers all over the world. He began writing for the Guardian during the invasion."
