TV Lexicon: Peabody AwardsBy Wikipedia
The George Foster Peabody Awards, more commonly known as simply
the "Peabody Awards", are annual international awards given for
excellence in radio and television broadcasting and cable television.
Founded in 1940, the awards are administered by the Henry W. Grady College
of Journalism and Mass Communication at the University of Georgia. The
awards are named after the capitalist George Foster Peabody who donated
the funds to initiate the awards.
The Peabody Awards are generally regarded as the most prestigious
awards within the fields of broadcast journalism, documentary making,
educational programming, children's programming, and entertainment. They
are in contrast to the entertainment-oriented Emmy
Awards.
The Peabody Awards were originally only for radio, but in 1948
television awards were introduced. In the late 1990s additional categories
for material distributed via the Web were added. Materials created for
theatrical motion picture release are not eligible.
