It may not be as bad as the Eurovision Song Contest, but some still small voices tell me that the annual Royal Television Society journalism awards are continuing to demonstrate interesting voting patterns.
The make-up of panels endeavours to provide representation from across interests, and then there's the scrutiny of senior judges, etc. But tribal backgrounds are powerful things, and flex in scale.
Over the years, for example, Sky News has provided programming for Channel 5, but it's now brought to you by ITV. As is Channel 4 News.
All of this is by-the-by to James Harding, Director of BBC News, who left with slim pickings this year. I suspect next year you'll see plenty of nominations involving reporters and corrrespondents more obviously brought to you by the new regime at Broadcasting House.
