We’re so proud and pleased and overwhelmed to announce that this morning the Center for Emerging Media was honored with a 2007 Peabody Award for the series Just Words. Just Words was a weekly documentary feature series that gave voice to marginalized people-low wage workers, ex felons, recovering addicts, the homeless, and more. You can listen to it here.
We share the honor this year with some of our colleagues in public radio such as Speaking of Faith, the Brian Lehrer Show, and Wait, Wait…Don’t Tell Me! Also honored were television programs such as The Colbert Report and the BBC/Discovery Channel series Planet Earth. A full list of 2007 winners can be found here. All the winners ever are listed here.
Thanks for all your support! We couldn’t do without it.
