What an inspiring evening at the NAB Leadership Foundation’s Celebration of Service to America Awards! Congratulations to all the honorees, including businesswoman Gayle Benson for her philanthropic work throughout New Orleans and the greater Gulf Region. My sincere thanks to NABLF President Michelle Duke and NABLF Chairman DuJuan A. McCoy for their exceptional leadership in elevating the vital role broadcasters play in serving communities across our nation. Congratulations as well to NAB President and CEO Curtis LeGeyt, whose steady leadership continues to guide and strengthen our industry. I was especially proud to see Hearst Television’s WCVB Channel 5 honored with the Service to Community – First Informer Award. This recognition reflects the extraordinary commitment of Executive Vice President and Group Head Kyle Grimes, WCVB President and General Manager Andrew Vrees, WCVB News Director Margaret Cronan and the entire WCVB Channel 5 team to delivering trusted, life-saving journalism when communities need it most. A special thank you to Senator Ed Markey, a tireless champion of local broadcasters, for joining the celebration and presenting this well-deserved award. It was equally meaningful to see Hearst Television receive the Service to Community Award for Television – Broadcast Ownership Group. This honor is a testament to the leadership of Hearst Television President Michael J. Hayes, who serves as a true North Star for our organization and the broadcast industry, remaining steadfast in our mission to serve local communities with critical news and information. It also reflects the outstanding work of Senior Vice President, Content Barbara Maushard, whose leadership helps deliver on that promise every day across our stations. Congratulations as well to Kidde, recipient of this year’s Corporate Leadership Award, for its extraordinary commitment to protecting families and strengthening communities. Their support of “Home for Good,” produced in partnership with Hearst Media Production Group, under the leadership of Frank Biancuzzo, and Epic Entertainment and Media Group and that airs on ABC-affiliated stations nationwide, is a powerful example of how partnerships between corporations and broadcasters can make a meaningful difference in people’s lives. And to top it all off, the incomparable Gloria Gaynor closed the evening with a remarkable medley of her greatest songs, culminating with her iconic and timeless hit, “I Will Survive”—a fitting finale to a night dedicated to service, leadership, and community impact.

It is a distinction that reflects the station’s commitment to trusted journalism, strong leadership, and service to the communities of Central Iowa.

From credible journalism to meaningful partnerships, our people show every day what it means to lead with accountability, uphold transparency, and strengthen the connection KCCI has built with Iowans.” KCCI News Director Natalie Cabieses said this recognition speaks not only to the work KCCI produces on air and across mobile and digital platforms, but also to the leadership, culture, and shared values that guide the station behind the scenes. “At its core, trusted journalism depends on strong ethical decision-making, and this honor reinforces the responsibility KCCI carries in serving Central Iowa audiences with integrity,” she added.
