It wouldn’t be the British Journalism Awards without a good old barney about the nominations. Newsnight and Buzzfeed are jointly nominated for Investigation of the Year for the Kids Co scandal – a story on which they did a lot of good follow-up work but was broken by Miles Goslett in the Speccie. Five months earlier…

Congrats to Newsnight, nominated for a journalism award for its impressive (albeit belated) follow-up to the Spectator's Kids Company scoop.

Odd that Miles Goslett, who broke KidsCo story in Speccie, & many follow-up scoops in MoS, not shortlisted for British Journalism Awards.

And frankly outrageous that Newsnight nominated for Kidsco story, not Goslett. https://t.co/Xa0YNolHw8

Buzzfeed’s ‘Head of News’ Stuart Millar is probably regretting engaging:

@stuartmillar159 maybe call it a Newsnight/BuzzFeed joint-following-up-of-The-Spectator-Kids-Co-scoop-five-months-later 😉 #SeroSedSerio.

@stuartmillar159 well, grapes do go a bit sour after five months…

Media organisations can pay £75 for a vanity-satisfying nomination, something Newsnight and Buzzfeed apparently wasted no time in doing but Miles Goslett, who is a freelancer, didn’t. As Goslett explains:

“Until February 2015, when The Spectator published my article on Kids Company, not a single bad word about it or its chief executive Camila Batmanghelidjh had appeared in the mainstream media.”
