This is from the Manager's Desk.
The last of the awards for work accomplished in 2014 were handed out last Friday at the Oklahoma Associated Press Broadcasters luncheon. Work by the KGOU staff was highly recognized.
For the third year in a row, and for six in seven years, KGOU’s news work was given the Sweepstakes award as the most decorated radio station in Oklahoma in this competition.
In addition to the Sweepstakes, KGOU staff received 14 other awards, including five first place, six second place and three third place awards. The winners include Kate Carlton Greer, Brian Hardzinski, Jim Johnson and former news director, Kurt Gwartney.
The first place awards were in various categories, including best weather coverage, best newscast, best government reporting, best investigative reporting, and best use of sound. Click here for a complete list!
Please join me in thanks to the KGOU staff in doing great work year after year.
Thanks. From the Manager’s Desk, I’m Karen Holp.
