The 2008 Peer Awards continue to celebrate local excellence in media and offer one of the most sought-after awards in our community. The ceremony was held at the National Press Club on Saturday, November 22.
Each entry was judged anonymously, and on its own merit, by a panel of professionals who adhere to a high standard of excellence. Making an award in a category was at the discretion of the judging panel. Not all awards in all categories were awarded winners.
Sample clips from Gold Winners are now available to view online. Click on the title of the entry to view. (Requires Flash Player version 8.)
