I don't know about the Marconis, but many industry awards are made on
the basis of presentations created by stations or producers which are
supposed to highlight their best work; the results are then judged by
a panel of experts in the field.  That's how all the journalism awards
are done, for example.  I suppose now there are probably awards for
multimedia journalism that include both broadcast and Web content.
