What makes a television program, radio, podcast, or a social video rising to the level of the PEABODY award? Jeffrey B. JonesExecutive Director of Pepodi AwardsExplain the standards of interest to the prestigious complex in the latest episode of diverse Podcast “Strict works”
“What makes Peabody is unique is that it is a platform no, you can also not hold it,” says Jones.
Annual PEABODYS 85 will be distributed on June 1 at a party in Beverly Hills. Jaradi College of Press and Press Masses at the University of Georgia has managed awards since 1940, which means that Peabodys has preceded Amy Awards for eight years.
The archives of the organization include copies not only from every winner, but every presentation from the beginning. In recent years, about 1,200 requests per year, which are distilled into a few dozen honors.
“We are the third largest archive of vocal optical materials,” says Jones. “Only behind the Congress Library and UCLA. And only 5 % of digitization. It is an unusual warehouse.”

Jones emphasizes that Pepodi is trying to throw a wide network for its annual honors. There are no specific number of winners in different awards categories, including entertainment, arts, documentaries, news, children/youth, interactivity, overwhelming, podcast and public service.
“We are doing things from popcorn as well, but there is always a degree, what is trying to fall into communication and the extent of its match with the times. So sometimes, he says.
In his other role as a professor at Jaradi College, Jones formulated many books on the intersection of comic and television news and how popular culture is. At the moment of the change in culture and politics, Jones sees the main media that is struggling to keep up with it.
“When you have a lot of change, it happens very quickly, this is really an ice breakdown,” he says. “I feel extreme sympathy for anyone who tries to be honest with their readers, viewers and listeners. With this change and feeling every person who feels tired of everything, it is a difficult task if you are a media producer.”
