PBS Grabs Lion’s Share of Noms

Jul 21, 2003  •  Post A Comment

Work seen on the Public Broadcasting Service amassed 31 of the news and documentary Emmy nominations announced last week by the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. The Big 3 network news organizations followed in a tight cluster. CBS News earned 19 nominations, and ABC News and NBC News earned 18 nominations each.
“National Geographic Explorer” programming that appeared on MSNBC accounted for the bulk of the 13 nominations attributed to MSNBC. “CNN Presents” accounted for four of CNN’s six nominations. Discovery Channel earned five nominations, followed by History Channel (four); Cinemax, HBO and TLC (three each); Fox Broadcasting, National Geographic Channel and Sundance Channel (two each); and A&E, Animal Planet, CNBC and Discovery Health (one each).
Plaques conveying regional honors will go to KGO-TV, KUSA-TV, WBNS-TV, WBZ-TV, WCPO-TV, WFXT-TV, WMAQ-TV, WTTG-TV and WTVF-TV when the Emmys are dispensed during a black-tie dinner Sept. 3. At the dinner, to be held at the Marriott Marquis Hotel in New York City, a Lifetime Achievement Emmy will go to “60 Minutes” creator and executive producer Don Hewitt, longtime “60 Minutes” executive editor Phil Scheffler and all past and present “60 Minutes” correspondents and producers.
The “60 Minutes” team will participate in a panel discussion of its 35 years on the CBS Network at a 10:30 a.m. Sept. 3 session at Fordham University. The newsmagazine’s crew and retiring Associated Press CEO Lou Boccardi also will be honored at a luncheon that day.
