Since 1971, The Radio Television Digital News Association has been honoring local radio and TV stations with the Edward R. Murrow Awards for outstanding achievements in electronic journalism.
And Texas stations are well represented for 2016.
I have copied the Region 6 winners, which includes Texas TV and radio stations, so you can congratulate those who have worked so hard to develop their craft.
The site says national winners will be announced in June.
