[HCDX] BBC News website wins graphics awards



BBC News website wins graphics awards:

The BBC News website has won top prizes at an awards ceremony celebrating 
the world's best visual journalism.
A range of election and politics content was awarded a 'best in show' prize 
and gold medal at the Society for News Design's annual Malofiej awards.
BBC News Interactive editor, Steve Herrmann said: "The online resources we 
created for the election coverage were, I believe, second to none.
"It means a lot to have won against such stiff competition."
The winning package of content included the general election results map, 
swingometer, results index and poll tracker.
Also included was the site's unique Thatcher years in statistics feature 
and the Born Abroad special on British immigration. Herrmann said both 
"showed quite simply that some stories can be told better by graphics than 
words".
There was also an individual silver medal for the swingometer, an online 
version of the gadget used by Peter Snow on election night.
