Primary Content
Georgia Public Broadcasting was honored with two Public Media Awards by the National Educational Telecommunications Association (NETA), recognizing the exceptional achievements of member stations in community engagement, content, education, and marketing and communications. Winners were announced at the 58th Annual Public Media Awards on Sunday, Sept. 13, at the NETA Conference in New Orleans.
NETA represents more than 300 member stations. With the exception of the overall excellence categories, stations compete within divisions based on their station size and awards are judged by a group of expert panelists from within the public media system, as well as industry professionals working outside of public media.
GPB was awarded in the following categories:
- Cross-Platform Content - Marked!, which looks at Georgia's role during America’s revolutionary period
- Radio-Environment - Jillian Magtoto's ‘That Land is always gonna be changed.' Screven County farmers fear new gas pipeline's impact.
“Congratulations to all the Public Media Award winners and honorees. Their work is truly impactful,” said NETA President Eric Hyyppa. “In a time when connection and community matter more than ever, stations are bringing public media’s mission to life in powerful ways, reflecting the values and vision of the system by serving communities with integrity, innovation, and a deep commitment to storytelling that matters.”
