MIAMI, July 11, 2025 ~ The Society of Professional Journalists' Green Eyeshade Awards, the nation's largest and oldest regional journalism competition, has announced the winners of its 2025 awards. These awards recognize outstanding journalism produced in 2024.
Among the recipients is Blue Ridge Public Radio, based in Asheville, N.C., which received the prestigious Best of Show honor for its coverage of Hurricane Helene in a package titled "Hell or High Water." The Green Eyeshade judging panel praised the station for its real-time analysis, investigative reporting, fact-checking, and innovative communication methods that served as a lifeline to the community during North Carolina's worst natural disaster on record.
The judges also commended Blue Ridge Public Radio for its use of multimedia platforms to integrate feature reporting with storytelling, data analytics, and compelling photography. They were particularly impressed with the station's post-Helene coverage that held community leaders accountable.

Journalists from 12 southeastern states including Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Virginia and West Virginia are eligible to enter. This year's competition saw a significant increase in entries due to changes made in honor of its 75th year.
