Broadcaster of the Year
Since 1977 the ultimate honor that can be bestowed on a New Hampshire broadcaster is selection as Broadcaster of the Year. As the photos and videos below indicate, it’s a rather exclusive circle.
Who qualifies? Usually men and women who have worked in broadcasting for a substantial time, though not necessarily at one station. Candidates should:
- Display an outstanding commitment to his/her job
- Show unwavering dedication to the evolution of broadcasting
- Breathe life into his/her work by being creative and enthusiastic
- Be committed to the community.
