Kvea is clearly doing something right. The Telemundo-owned Los Angeles station, part of a duopoly with sister NBC outlet Knbc, swept this year’s key newscast categories at the 75th Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards. The Spanish language station dominated the evening, winning the Emmys for evening (7 p.m. to 12 a.m.), daytime (11 a.m. to 7 p.m.) and morning (4 a.m. to 11 a.m.) newscasts.
Kvea had won the daytime newscast Emmy last year as well.
Overall, Kvea earned eight L.A. Area Emmy awards this year, tied with local public broadcaster Kcet. (That was also up from Kcet’s haul of six last year.) Given the tie with Kvea, that still preserves Kcet’s streak of this being the seventh year in a row that Kcet won the most.
The Kcbs/Kcal duopoly was next in line, with four wins, while ABC-owned Kabc and cabler Spectrum SportsNet LA were next with three.

David Grabias' "Cinema Chimp," a portrait of Cheeta, who's starred in numerous Hollywood films, received a $25,000 grant from the Humane Society of the United States at the AFI: Discovery Channel Documentary Film Festival, which concluded Monday in Silver Spring, Md. The film was picked for showing how primates are used in the entertainment business.
The Hsus' Animal Content in Entertainment Grant is designed to encourage the inclusion of animal protection issues in short- and longform documentary filmmaking.
" 'Cinema Chimp' is the perfect example of how a documentary can bring an animal protection concern -- or any pressing social issue -- to the forefront through a compelling and engaging story line that has the potential to create a shift in public attitudes," said the Hsus' Ross Hammer.
"Cinema Chimp" was selected from five finalist projects by a panel of broadcast executives from PBS, Animal Planet, National Geographic Channel, and the Hsus.

The award for a short film went to Andreas Koefoed's "12 Notes Down," the portrait of a 14-year choir performer coping with the fact that his voice is changing.
A Special Jury mention went to "Salt," directed by Michael Angus and Murray Fredericks, which chronicles photographer Murray Frederick's journey into the remote salt flats in South Australia.
