Last night at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel, a group of journalists and entertainers were honored for their work in 2007 at the ceremony for the 67th Annual Peabody Awards. This year's awards, administered by the University of Georgia's Grady College of Journalism and Mass Communication and selected by a board, are considered one of the most prestigious awards in electronic media (films intended for wide theatrical release are not allowed), were given to 35 different recipients--many of them NYC-based entities, like the series 30 Rock and Mad Men, the mock-news show The Colbert Report, reality show Project Runway and WNYC's The Brian Lehrer Show.
Brian Lehrer Peabody description for The Brian Lehrer Show: " Lehrer`s talk show is a wide open yet shrewdly managed forum in which every sort of political, social and cultural issue is consdiered and where New Yorkers, in all their diversity, can get to know each other." (Photos by Wireimage)

"redeems the reality tv genre", give me a break.
I love Brian Lehrer, but he's certainly got a face for radio.
Who are these people? What is this award show? Who F'N cares
smacky FYI:

Yeah right Brian Leher staff from that year he was awarded for all left due to the center right the station has taken due to patronage given to the rigch mayor, and he gives them a cool 10 mil to keep it positive about bloomy...
How Do I know, I did on on the 2005 2007 year!
I knew it, I thought leher's show had a faint conservative slant. no biggie, don't like the guy.
he's gonna turn into michael medved soon.
must be a proud moment for any journalist or satirist to win such a prestigious award like the one Heidi Klum won on the same night.
DWM, your lack of command of the English language trumps any insider legitimacy you think you have.
Brian Lehrer is a jewel of WNYC. Isn't Bloomberg independent? To think he is aligned with the republicans seems ridiculous.
DWM needs a trip to remedial school.
