In February 2014, Farrow received the third annual Cronkite Award for Excellence in Exploration and Journalism from Reach the World, in recognition of his work since 2001, including his being a UNICEF Spokesperson for Youth in 2001.[2][3] The awarding was criticised by some media outlets as coming just three days after Ronan Farrow Daily began airing.[4][5]
