This is the third year in a row that Ordinario won in the same category. Prior to her, another reporter, Jasper Emmanuel Y. Arcalas, won the category for the newspaper two years in a row.
BusinessMirror as a news organization was also declared the Ambassador for Statistics during the 8th NSM Media Awards and was adjudged Best Media Advocate for Statistics during the 11th NSM Media Awards.
Other winners in the 12th NSM Media Awards were Ted Cordero of GMA News Online for Best Statistical Reporting in Online Media; Shyla Francisco of News5 for Best Statistical Reporting in TV Broadcast Media; and Michael Joe Delizo of ABS-CBN as Best Media Advocate for Statistics.
Running on its 12th season this year, the NSM Media Awards aim to recognize the significant role and contribution of media in promoting and popularizing official statistical information. This is done through their efforts to feature data/statistics and other products and services from the Philippine Statistical System in print, online platforms, television, and radio news service.
