Eleven Year Old Youngest Ever to Be Nominated For a NY Emmy

Jackson Murphy, host of "Light-Camera-Jackson", a popular, weekly movie review segment, has been nominated for two NY Emmy Awards. "Lights-Camera-Jackson" airs weekly in the Albany, Syracuse and Binghamton, N.Y. markets on Time Warner Cable's 24 hour news channels.

ALBANY, N.Y., March 2 /PRNewswire/ -- Jackson Murphy, host of "Lights-Camera-Jackson", a popular, weekly movie review segment, has been nominated for two NY Emmy Awards.


"Lights-Camera-Jackson" airs weekly in the Albany, Syracuse and Binghamton, N.Y. markets on Time Warner Cable's 24 hour news channels.


Jackson, 11, is the youngest person ever to be nominated for a NY Emmy. He is nominated in the categories of Entertainment Program: Feature or Segment and On-Camera Talent: Commentator or Editorialist.


"I'm surprised and honored to be considered by my peers for these awards," said Jackson. "It is truly amazing just to be nominated and compete with such talented people."


Jackson's entries were selected by a Blue Ribbon Panel assembled by any of the 19 Academy Chapters from all over the U.S. Judges come from local television stations, networks, cable programming services and independent production facilities, and are often themselves Emmy and other industry award winners.


"The New York Market, the number 1 market in the country, continues to be the most competitive and most difficult market to be nominated and to win an Emmy Award. This year we received a total of 1519 entries and we honor 495 nominees in 104 categories," said The New York Chapter of National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences Executive Director, Jacqueline J. Gonzalez.


Jackson is currently in talks with numerous shows to cover this week's Academy Awards from his unique perspective as a kid, and a movie critic.
