Other nominations of note were for “WaxWord,” Editor-in-Chief Sharon Waxman’s blog about the business of entertainment, and TheWrap’s thrilling four nominations in the Investigative category, including one for TheWrap’s most notable stories in 2013, the uncovering of ties in the Bauer Media Group to Nazi sympathizer publications.
