The Outstanding Entertainment News Program has been dominated by Entertainment Tonight and Extra since it was created in 2014.
But DailyMailTV, which was also nominated for Outstanding Main Title and Graphics this year, scored record ratings in its sophomore season with major exclusives.
The series broke the news that Wendy Williams had been living in a sober facility after the talk show host's recent relapse, and scored Asia Argento's first and only English-language interview since the death of her partner Anthony Bourdain and allegations of sexual assault.
It also featured Donald Trump Jr and his girlfriend Kimberly Guilfoyle's first ever joint interview, and broke the news of Tristan Thompson's affair with another woman just days before Khloe Kardashian gave birth to their first child.
