Double gold spades for Cold facts

Leksand extended the winning streak beat AIK

There were double Golden Spades for TV4’s digging editorial team Cold facts when the Association of Digging Journalists held its award ceremony on Saturday. Reporter Emil Hellerud is behind both the winning reviews. – It was said that there would be no April Fools’ jokes here tonight, but it almost feels that way. Thank you very much, he says. Both the review “Dirty personal data” and “The parties’ secret money” were awarded golden shovels in the categories ethermedia riks news and ethermedia riks documentary. In “Dirty personal data” it is revealed how several large Swedish companies use personal data collected with the help of trademark theft and can be linked to suspected fraud. C More, Comprocer and Viaplay are some of the companies revealed in Kalla fakta’s examination of the dirty online data trade. Emil Hellerud and Lovisa Thuresson are behind the review. In “The parties’ secret money” it was revealed that many parties are prepared to exploit loopholes in the law on the reporting of party contributions. After the review, the Kammarkollegiet opened a supervisory case. Emilia Berggren, Daniel Gökinan and Emil Hellerud are behind the review. Sara Recabarren is the editor of Kalla fakta and is happy that the newly launched format used by “Dirty personal data” has had a big impact. – It’s fanatical fun! We now work with both quick digs and longer formats – and it’s fun to see that this investment has actually led to something and that we are being noticed in this way, she says. Here you can see part 1 and part 2 of the review “Parties’ secret money”. Here you can see the review “Dirty personal data”
