In a time where information is a touchscreen swipe away, demand for news, updates and real-time events has never been so high. Whether it’s the latest political news, the current world affairs or the seemingly innocent pop-culture gossip, people want to know it – and they want it now! In this category, we pay tribute to all the local radio stations, news outlets, podcasts and social media pages that help spread the word about what is going on in Porto.
Taking a quick look at all the different subcategories’ winners, there is one name that keeps popping up: Rádio Portuense! Not only were they the winners of the Best Radio Station award, but their program grid and qualified staff also landed them Best Radio Show (for Relato Portal dos Dragões) and Best Radio Host (Luís Mesquita).
FC Porto – by far the city’s favourite and most well-known sports club – was another of the main winners here, taking Best Website for fcporto.pt, as well as Best Twitter for the club’s social media page (@FCPorto) . Considering their official publication Revista Dragões also won Best Magazine, FC Porto pretty much cleaned house!
We would also like to take this opportunity to personally thank our readers who voted Oporto Blog as the Best Instagram account (@oportoblog)! We love you all!
