While I appreciate Neal's push for digital creators at the Emmys, let's be real - they're not exactly the same cloth as traditional nominees.

Traditional nominees often come from structured industries with established standards, while digital creators rise to fame through platforms like YouTube or TikTok, often without formal training.

They're both creative and talented, but their content can be wildly different from traditional TV shows. While it's worth considering changes to Emmy categories to reflect the evolving entertainment landscape, let's not overlook the distinct differences between these two groups.

That’s true BUT things are getting muddier between traditional Vs creator-led. Af some point I would imagine that these two start to become closer and closer without any clear delineation.

These creators aren't just some random folks with cameras; they're serious professionals with legit production teams and groundbreaking content. It's about time the Television Academy acknowledges their impact and evolution in the entertainment landscape. Viewers dont care if content comes from TV or YouTube anymore, so why should the Emmys?
