COSTA MESA, Calif. (June 20, 2013) --- "SoCaL Insider with Rick Reiff" has been named a finalist for a Los Angeles Area Emmy award. The show, produced by Rick Reiff and David Nazar, is one of three finalists in the category of Informational/Public Affairs Series (more than 50% studio-based.) The other finalists are KVEA's "Enfoque Los Angeles" and KCET's "SoCal Connected."

Besides "SoCaL Insider," PBS SoCaL-TV has one other Emmy finalist, Maria Hall-Brown's and Eric Kirsten's "Be Brave: Samantha's Story" in the Crime/Social Issues category.

The winners will be announced by the Academy of Television Arts and Sciences in August.
