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.
