This year, a record-breaking 550 entries were received from network affiliates, local cable access, public and private sectors, television and newspaper Internet, individual bloggers, and universities, sports teams and health facilities.
“Tonight’s Emmy winners demonstrate exemplary work from small and large markets across our region of Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, and South Dakota. And in our Advanced Media category, we see winners who come from a wide range of media, both traditional and nontraditional. We congratulate them all for their excellent work,” said Carol Rueppel, president, Board of Governors of the National Television Academy, Upper Midwest Chapter.

This year’s Silver Circle Honorees (25+ years) were Ron Gruber, Dick Heidt and Stan Turner.
“Congratulations to all of this year’s Emmy recipients. The entries truly represent some of the best work our region has to offer.
