WVIA received two PABs in the Outstanding Documentary Program 2023 category for “Agnes 50: Life After The Flood” and “VIA Short Takes: 201.”

WVIA also received two PABs in the Outstanding Television Public Affairs Program/Program Series 2023 category for “Keystone Edition Reports: Agnes 50” and “Mind Over Matter: You Are Not Alone.”

In addition, WVIA’s George Graham has been awarded the Radio Broadcaster of the Year Award.

“To be recognized by the Pennsylvania Association of Broadcasters for the work that we do is always an honor,” said Ben Payavis II, Chief Content Officer at WVIA. “The work that received awards this year tells the stories of our region, and we are proud to share them with the world.”

“WVIA creates programs that ask hard questions and dig deep into their subject matter,” said Carla McCabe, WVIA President, and CEO. “We are honored that these programs are being recognized, as they highlight the stories and people of Northeastern and Central Pennsylvania while maintaining the high quality that our viewers and listeners have come to expect from WVIA. Something that our own George Graham, who is also being recognized, has been doing for our region for decades.”

“Agnes 50: Life After The Flood,” “VIA Short Takes: 201, Keystone Edition Reports: Agnes 50,” and “Mind Over Matter: You Are Not Alone” are available to watch anytime, on-demand at wvia.org as well as on the PBS and WVIA Apps.
