Each year, the Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasters honors the exceptional accomplishments of the Keystone State’s broadcast stations and their professionals. This year, Audacy Inc. is part of the honors.
In fact, Philadelphia-headquartered Audacy, which is winding its way through a Houston federal bankruptcy court as it seeks to quickly shed its debtor-in-possession status with a restructuring, is the recipient of 15 PAB 2024 Excellence in Broadcasting Awards.
Recipients will celebrate at a luncheon in May.
In addition to Audacy, WVIA-TV, the PBS affiliate for Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania; and TEGNA-owned WPMT-TV “FOX 43” in Harrisburg-York-Lancaster, Pa., scored honors. WVIA’s NPR Member radio station is also an award winner for 2024.
