PROGRAM OF EVENTS

Opening Remarks Joan Cartan-Hansen, President

Silver Circle Induction Lori Matsukawa, KING, Silver Circle 2014

Emmy® Awards Host & Producer Chris Cashman PRESIDENT’S MESSAGE

On behalf of the Northwest chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences, I welcome you to the 55th Northwest Regional Emmy®Awards. Ours is a profession under attack, facing technological transitions and real economic challenges. And yet, despite all that, the work produced in our region shines as an example to the rest of the country. We have the largest region by size and, I believe, the best quality of journalists, producers, writers, editors, directors and talent in the nation. We can all be very proud.

Tonight, we honor you. We salute our extraordinary Silver Circle inductees, applaud the outstanding work from our Student Award nominees and recognize our remarkable scholarship recipients. We also pay tribute to those we lost this past year. It will be an evening to remember.

Events like this don’t just happen. Our board of governors and our committees give countless hours to do our chapter’s work. From nomination parties to award ceremonies, scholarship recruitment to social media campaigns, and show production to entry judging, these dedicated volunteers work the entire year to honor the best. I thank each of them for their service and I invite you to join us. Send me an email if you’d like to get involved. I also especially want to thank our executive director Diane Bevins and her team at Association Services Inc. for their tireless efforts on our behalf.

I am privileged to serve as your president. I wish you a fun and inspired evening. Congratulations to you all.

Joan Cartan-Hansen

55th Annual Northwest Regional Emmy® Awards

PURPOSE Each year, the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences (NATAS) confers the coveted Emmy Award upon talented individuals within the broadcasting industry. The Emmy® Award is the symbol of excellence in broadcasting and—as we all know—excellence is achieved in every market size. The purpose of the Regional Awards is to recognize such achievements within the smaller geographic areas of the country. There are currently 19 regional chapters of NATAS in the United States. The constitutionally mandated territory of the Northwest Regional Emmy® Awards includes the states of Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. The Regional Emmy® statuettes presented this evening serve to provide incentive for further achievement and to focus the public’s attention on the cultural, technological and artistic advancement of our professional colleagues locally. All entries must have been created, produced and originally broadcast within the Northwest Regional Emmy® Awards competition territory between January 1 and December 31, 2017. The entries must not have been broadcast to more than 50 percent of the national television audience. We wish to thank the Boston/New England, Lone Star, Mid-America, Mid-Atlantic, Nashville and Rocky Mountain chapters for judging this year’s awards. JUDGING EMMY® Emmy® Award judging is peer judging. A peer judge is defined as any person with a minimum of two years of professional experience in the field of television program production or programming who is directly engaged in or supervises the discipline being judged. Potential judges may also include professionals in allied fields, who by the specific nature of their work are uniquely qualified to make judgmental decisions concerning particular areas of television production. Examples of peer judges include: writers; producers; directors; programming, production and news executives; craft persons; advertising agency executives and creative directors involved in programming decisions; print journalists (who have hands-on television production experience); sports professionals; college university educators who represent journalism/film/television; and former broadcast journalists. To keep awards at the highest level of integrity, television professionals from other chapters judge your work. With online judging, there are some categories whereby several chapters are involved in the judging process. A minimum of six, but preferably more judges view each entry. These judges view each entry and score online, without discussion. No consensus judging is allowed. Just as we count on our peers in other markets to judge our entries, we count on you to help judge theirs. The success of the Emmy® awards process depends on the willingness of qualified professionals to serve as judges. As stipulated by the “Standard Clauses,” those persons entering the competition have agreed to serve as a judge. This year we will judge entries from the Lone Star, Ohio Valley, Mid-America, Nashville, and Rocky Mountain chapters. Throughout the year, we receive requests for judging. We hope you will serve as a judge. Contact our chapter office at 206.575.3444 or natas@asi-seattle.net to indicate your interest.

DOUG ARMSTRONG

People desire to see media companies build up the community. Television media has a unique opportunity to set the gold standard for excellence in journalism, local content and public service, to build a stronger community. That’s a vision worth fighting for. Doug Armstrong retired as president and general manager of the KTVB News Group in March 2018. The KTVB News Group is a subsidiary of TEGNA and consists of KTVB-Boise, KTFT-Twin Falls, KTVB’s 24/7, KTVB.com, and KTVB Mobile. Doug’s broadcasting career started in 1985 as controller and business manager for KTVB, where he helped start up new NBC station KTFT in 1986. In 1987, King Broadcasting Company purchased KHNL in Honolulu, Hawaii, and asked Doug to transfer there as controller and business manager. In 1989, at age 31, he was promoted to president and general manager. He initiated a local marketing agreement merger with KFVE, creating a combined two-station operation. While at KHNL/KFVE he switched affiliations from FOX to NBC, moved to new studio facilities, started a newsroom from scratch, grew staffing by 100 percent, and launched local news from the first all-digital newsroom in America (a beta co-development project with AVID). In 1996, Doug was named president and general manager of KTVB/KTFT. For 22 years, he steadily grew the audience rating and local news preference rating. He is the founder of Drug Free Idaho and has served on the boards of the Honolulu Chamber of Commerce, Boise Chamber of Commerce and Boise Regional Economic Partnership. He has also been involved with Boise Public Schools Education Foundation, YMCA, Caring Foundation for Children and the 2009 Special Olympics World Winter Games. Doug was inducted into the Boise Chamber of Commerce Hall of Fame in 2013 and named 2014 General Manager of the Year by Broadcasting & Cable Magazine. He has a degree in Business Administration from Whitworth University and is currently enrolled in graduate school at the Moody Theological Seminary in Chicago. Doug claims the role of husband and father as the top priorities of his time. He has been married to Amber for 30 years and they have three children.

LAURAL PORTER

At a time when trust in the media is at an all-time low and Americans fear fake news, our role as journalists has never been more critical. Local news is where we can make a difference. It’s up to us—current and future journalists—to always earn that trust. I couldn’t have imagined the incredible ride ahead when I donned my cowgirl hat and hopped into the Cowboy Cadillac at KSON radio, San Diego’s country station. It was my first job out of college, riding around giving out collector belt buckles, then hustling back to the station to read the news … still in my KSON cowgirl outfit. It seemed I was destined to ride the wild west trail. My first break in TV came when the owner of KIFI offered me a job in Idaho Falls, Idaho. I packed up my VW bug and headed for those wide-open spaces. It would be life-changing. I met my future husband the day I arrived. Years later, we would marry and have four beautiful children. The old adage, “Do something you love and you’ll never work a day in your life,” has been true for me. I was lucky to become the first female evening anchor at KIFI. I loved doing feature stories. Later, at KTVB, Rod Gramer started the first morning show, making me and Carolyn Holly the first female co-anchor team. After a stint at WESH in Florida, we returned to the West to join KGW, where I’ve anchored the 6, 10, and 11 p.m. news since 2000. At KGW, I’ve had the privilege of interviewing three Nobel Prize winners: President Obama, the Dalai Lama, and Malala Yousafzai. General manager DJ Wilson and news director Rick Jacobs have entrusted me to be moderator of KGW’s current affairs show, “Straight Talk,” for the past 10 years. A program illuminating the issues critical to our community matters now more than ever. Being inducted into the Silver Circle–and joining this exceptional group of industry professionals who embody the standard for excellence in journalism–is a dream come true. When we reflect on our lives and career, it’s the people we remember most. The folks in Bone, Idaho, who got their first phones in 1982. Dugout Dick, who lived in a cave and invited me to his “cave warming.” The woman who regained her sight through the generosity of a Portland doctor. I’m grateful to the people who gave me a break along the way. My bosses at KGW and Tegna who let me keep doing the job I love. The exceptional colleagues I’ve been fortunate enough to work with. And our viewers who have joined me on this journey.

JOHN SHARIFY

Find a mentor who can help you develop as a journalist, someone whose work you admire and you can learn from. I’ll be forever indebted to the mentors in my career who pushed me to be better and encouraged me to embrace the craft of storytelling. John Sharify lives and breathes storytelling and is grateful to those willing to share their stories. He believes his passion to express himself in words is in his DNA. It turns out his late father, Nasser Sharify, was a well-known poet in Iran. John, who had doubts about his own abilities as a storyteller early in his career, will always remember that moment when his dad declared, “Son, that story you did, didn’t have one extra word. It was poetry.” That moment, for John, was better than any award he has ever received. John believes in the power of storytelling. He believes in the importance of telling meaningful stories and finding meaning in the stories we have the privilege to tell as journalists. It IS a privilege. He is currently a special projects reporter for KING and general manager of Seattle Colleges Cable Television. He began his career in journalism in New York City in 1981, where he worked as a producer and then a reporter at WPIX. In 1989, he headed to Seattle to report for KOMO, where he delivered his signature life-affirming stories for 18 years. He is grateful to have served as president of the Northwest chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences from 2006 to 2010. John has received 68 Emmy® and eight National Edward R. Murrow awards, including three National Murrows for Writing. He was selected National Press Photographer Association Reporter of the Year in 2015. John was honored to present a TEDx Talk in 2012 about his National Murrow-winning documentary, “Climb of a Lifetime,” which chronicled the lives of homeless men training to climb Mt. Rainier. His passion for storytelling has taken him around the world as he presents workshops in newsrooms and at journalism conferences on the craft of writing and visual storytelling. John has mentored hundreds of journalists across the country and takes pride in their growth as storytellers. He reminds them, “not one extra word.” His all-time favorite stories are the ones he wrote about his son Perry when he competed as a breaststroker at the Olympic Trials in 2012, and the story he did about his daughter Jade on “Bring Your Daughter to Work Day” when she was just 10 years old. Jade did all the work that day.

2018 Silver Circle

ERIC SOWL

A former general manager of mine, Al Bramstedt Jr., was a great mentor and role model. He used to say, “Focus on what you can positively affect.” The goal everyday should be to make the world a better place. Alaska is a place of extremes: amazing beauty, complicated landscapes, quirky people, new opportunities and rich history. For me, Alaska is home. It’s where I met my wife and created our amazing family, and where I’ve spent most of my professional career caring for my second family—my colleagues. I’ve worked at KTUU for more than 28 years. That’s a lifetime by any newsroom standard. I’ve been blessed with adventures near and far, around the world and in Alaska. I’ve shot stories with kings and presidents, worked the summer and winter Olympics and have hung out on Hollywood sets. But nothing compares to the thrill and reward of covering stories in Alaska. Chasing dogs some 1,000 miles across the frozen wilds of Alaska during the Iditarod Trail Sled Dog Race. Exploring the oil-imperiled waters and beaches of Prince William Sound following the Exxon Valdez oil spill. Standing on sea ice in the arctic chronicling the fate of whales trapped offshore in Barrow. Hefting my camera over the Chilkoot Trail like a gold rush stampeder. There is no end to the adventures, each one unique. Each one worth the effort and investment. When I look back, my greatest privilege has been the ability to participate in so many unique experiences and join the bonds that string them together—people. It is the human experience I value most. And it is at its greatest not in chasing a story, but in watching other photojournalists grow and succeed. Being a part of their journey is the most important and the most memorable thing I have done. I’ve won a lot of awards. Our station has a reputation for unyielding quality. I’m proud of that. But I’ll tell you this: I have never felt as much pride as when I’ve had a role in helping another photojournalist outgrow us, in watching my colleagues go on to win awards. My biggest wins are when they win. Their success is my success. To me, lifting up those around me is the most honorable recognition of what it means to be a chief photographer. My staff probably thinks they work for me. But they’re wrong. I work for them—as teacher, mentor, advocate. Humbly, it is these successful journalists, photojournalists and multi-media journalists who work in varied markets around the country, who stand with me here today. They are my greatest reward, a collective excellence spread far and wide. My very best work is leaving the future of our industry in their hands.

TRACY VEDDER

I celebrate the courage and curiosity of journalists today. However, I’m dismayed by the new ethical challenges from corporate media, such as the latest from Sinclair Broadcasting. I am proud of my colleagues who withstand such pressure. Tracy Vedder was lucky to spend more than 27 years pursuing her passion in the fractured, hectic, dynamic, soul- wrenching and ultimately satisfying world of broadcast journalism. She began her career in Spokane at KXLY where she learned the “biz,” from puff to hard-core. One of her earliest stories was with a guy in a gorilla suit. But just after a few years of experience, she produced an Edward R. Murrow award-winning series about a cultish church that prevented its members from watching TV or reading newspapers, required its women and girls to wear long skirts and always cover their hair, and forced abusive punishments upon children for minor misbehavior. She moved to KREM in Spokane in 1990, when “going live” was becoming a daily occurrence even in smaller markets and TV stations were going for big splash stories. She worked with other top-notch reporters and photographers who were all about doing the best work they could—and friendly competition meant everyone got better. She spent days covering the stand-off at Ruby Ridge and went to the Middle East to cover the beginnings of the first Gulf War. She also produced documentary reports on cultural and environmental issues. In 1995, Tracy and her husband Dane made the cross-state move to Seattle and her new home at KOMO, where opportunities for travel and far-reaching stories abounded. She traveled to Macedonia, Albania, Japan and Switzerland for stories of both local and national significance. Tracy’s greatest journalistic love, however, was reserved for the stories that made a difference in peoples’ lives at the granular level. When KOMO committed fully to investigative reporting in 2007 it was truly a dream come true. Tracy had, almost, full-rein to go after organizations and agencies in positions of power and trust that had let down the public, sometimes with dire results. Hospitals, charities, government agencies, iconic Seattle businesses—all were fair game with Tracy and KOMO when they crossed the line. In early 2017, Tracy left KOMO to begin her next adventure, on a horse ranch in southern Idaho. With her husband, two dogs and six Appaloosa horses, she’s mastering in herd dynamics and the art of manure management. And now watching, reading and critiquing the news!

DJ WILSON

As the only profession included in the United States Constitution—a free press—we are privileged to work in a noble profession of vital importance as noted when our country was founded and ever more so today. It is an exhilarating time to be in this industry, as the ways in which we can communicate have grown vastly and have provided a level of unprecedented engagement and importance. DJ Wilson is the president and general manager of the KGW Media Group, a position she has held since July 2007. DJ worked twice at KIRO in Seattle in various sales and sales management roles in the 1970s and 1980s; worked in the FOX O&O group in the 1980s and 1990s (Detroit, Michigan; Birmingham, Alabama; and Atlanta, Georgia) in sales management positions, and twice at KING in the 1990s and then 1998-2005, with the final few years as the vice president/assistant general manager. She was promoted to president and general manager of KREM and KSKN in Spokane in 2005 and then promoted to president and general manager of KGW. DJ has worked in six markets for eight broadcast owners over the last four decades. She has held many board chair positions at a number of nonprofit and industry organizations, including the Oregon Association of Broadcasters, Classic Wines Auction and the Portland Business Alliance; the Edward R. Murrow Professional Advisory Board at Washington State University; and Farestart and the Institute for Family Development in Seattle. DJ has also served on the executive boards of Doernbecher Children’s Hospital and SMART (Start Making a Reader Today) and been a trustee at the Portland Art Museum and the Oregon chapter of the International Women’s Federation. She was also on the boards of the Pioneer Courthouse Square, American Heart Association, and Boys and Girls Clubs of Seattle. In 2012, DJ was inducted into the Edward R. Murrow Hall of Achievement and was the recipient of the Portland Business Alliance “No Glass Ceiling” women’s leadership award. She is also a Portland Business Journal Women of Influence Award recipient and was named Broadcaster of the Year for 2017 by the Oregon Association of Broadcasters. She holds a bachelor’s degree in communications from the Edward R. Murrow College of Communications at Washington State University and was affiliated with the Pi Beta Phi sorority. She has also completed several masters’ level classes in Communication Leadership at Gonzaga University. DJ is married to Bill Hoadley and they reside between their two homes in Portland, Oregon, and Whitefish, Montana.

55th Annual Northwest Regional Emmy® Awards

CITATION FOR OUTSTANDING COMMUNITY OUTREACH

In 2017, NATAS Northwest initiated the Citation for Outstanding Community Outreach to recognize stations and/or companies for their good works. Judging is similar to that for the Emmy® Awards, except many judges are from the nonprofit sector. The scope of the projects submitted demonstrates that Northwest broadcasters have a strong commitment to their designated market area beyond delivering the news. The NATAS Northwest board of governors commends all those who make community service a priority.

SCHOLARSHIPS “If you want to be happy, set a goal that commands your thoughts, liberates your energy and inspires your hopes.” — Andrew Carnegie

The 2018 NATAS Northwest Scholarship recipients are charging onward with their goals for careers in television broadcasting. At NATAS Northwest we believe education is our investment in the future. Each year since 1985 we have offered scholarships to deserving college students in Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon or Washington who are focused on a career in television. We have awarded 96 scholarships totaling more than $165,000, thanks to your generous contributions each year. A thank you to everyone who has given to this worthy cause. We hope we can continue to support this effort in years to come. In 2012, we were honored to add an additional scholarship to honor Tricia Moen, a producer at KOMO 4 in Seattle. This scholarship was created to pay tribute to Tricia’s memory by giving one college student the opportunity to follow in Tricia’s footsteps. The selection process for the NATAS scholarship is rather challenging. First, the scholarship committee determines student finalists based on their application which includes information on internships, grade point average and interest in the industry, as well as faculty endorsements. Members of the scholarship committee interview semi-finalists about a variety of issues directly related to the television industry. This year students were asked to explain their thoughts on questions regarding the industry, including “define the role of diversity in television production.” The following aspiring television broadcasters are excelling in their schools, paving the path to their own bright futures and showing the determination and hard work it will take to make their dreams a reality. Please congratulate our 2018 NATAS Northwest scholarship recipients: Sam Ellefson Pacific Lutheran University Laura Freeman University of Montana 2018 SCHOLARSHIP COMMITTEE Lindsay Cohen, Co-Chair Carolyn Kresser Tricia Moen Memorial scholarship recipient: Morgan Holm, Co-Chair Nicole Sanchez Giovanni Pulido Steve Allwine Nathan Wilson, KIRO University of Oregon
