The nominations for the 2014 International Emmy Awards are in spanning work from 18 countries including Argentina, Brazil, Chile, and for the first time non-English programming developed for the U.S. market. "In these troubled times in many places around the world, it is gratifying to see so many countries and organizations still striving and competing for excellence in television programming," Bruce L. Paisner, President & CEO of the International Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, said during the announcement of nominations. "That is part of the magic of television and of the Emmy." The winners of the accolades will be announced during a gala scheduled for November 24 at the Hilton New York Hotel. During the event Matt Weiner, creator of "Mad Men," will receive the 2014 International Emmy Founders Award. At the gala Marinho Irineu, CEO & President of Globo, will be honored with the Directorate Award for his achievements.
