Outstanding Achievement in Media Awards
To celebrate the best and brightest in local media, the Media Association of Pittsburgh hosted its 2008 Outstanding Achievement in Media Awards at LeMont on Mt. Washington. The evening began with cocktails and the restaurant’s famous fare, and MAP president Jimmy Kennedy’s welcome. To the city’s sparkling backdrop, WHIRL’s Jack and Christine Tumpson received the first-ever OMNI (Outdoor, Magazine, Newspaper, and Internet) Award. Roger Rafson of CMS took home the Radio award, Lonnie Stetz of KDKA-TV won honors in Television, MARC USA’s Stephanie Satterfield took home the Agency/Allied Award, and KDKA Radio’s Art Pallan was honored posthumously with the Thomas J. McWilliams Lifetime Achievement Award. Photography by David Bachman.
