PBS member station KCET topped the 74th Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards with six wins, followed by NBC4 and ABC7 with five each.
Saturday’s ceremony was presented from the Television Academy Plaza in North Hollywood, and was hosted by Spectrum News 1 journalist Giselle Fernández. The awards honored locally produced programs in the categories of live and breaking news coverage, crime and social issues, culture and history, the arts, human interest, sports and the environment.
KTLA’s Gayle Anderson was given the 2022 Los Angeles Area Emmy Governors Award by Television Academy Chairman and CEO Frank Scherma. The award is presented annually to an individual, company or organization that has made a substantial contribution to television broadcasting in the greater Los Angeles area.
Anderson was recognized for several decades of exceptional and insightful reporting on events, causes and issues impacting viewers across the region as well as her personal commitment to community advocacy and her work for numerous charitable organizations and programs across the Southland.
