CBS 47 WINS BEST NEWSCAST… AGAIN
 

(Fresno, November 3, 2006) CBS 47 has received yet another Best Newscast honor in 2006. The Northern California Radio-Television News Directors Association presented the prestigious award to Executive Producer Rudy Buehler in San Francisco on Saturday, October 28th. Judges lauded CBS 47’s newscast especially noting “good, fast-paced story-telling, crisp editing and great breakout stories that included the anchors.”

Also winning RTNDA awards were reporter Amy Allen and Photojournalist Justin Terro. They won for Best Weather Segment/Story which covered flooded families in Fresno this past Spring. Anchor/Reporter Paul Loeffler and Photojournalist Justin Terro also won Best Multi-Part Series for their “Stories of Service.” Those reports profiled still-living members of the “Greatest Generation” who served in World War Two.

Earlier this year, the Associated Press also named CBS 47 the best medium market newscast in California. It appears no other medium market news organization in California has received two major Best Newscast awards in 2006.

“This kind of recognition is gratifying” says CBS 47 News Director Jim Holland. “It shows the quality and the dedication of everyone at CBS 47 to air a great product, every day.”
