GLAAD announced 114 nominees in 23 English-language categories, and 33 Spanish-language
nominees in 9 categories. In the English-language categories, cable networks earned 22 nominations, while broadcast networks garnered 11 nominations. The awards recognize and honor media for outstanding images of the LGBT community.
In 2011, the GLAAD Media Awards will also celebrate GLAAD’s twenty-fifth anniversary year,
looking back at a quarter-century of work to build acceptance and advance equality through
LGBT images in the media.
“This year’s nominees represent some of the images and stories at the root of the growing
acceptance of our community and support for our equality,” said GLAAD President Jarrett
Barrios. “They also have created a benchmark for inclusion of our community that other media
outlets should look to. As GLAAD celebrates twenty-five years of working with the media, we
are proud to recognize this year’s nominees and we challenge the industry to share more stories
that reflect the diversity of our community and the challenges that gay and transgender people
face.”
The GLAAD Media Awards ceremonies will be held in New York on March 19, 2011 at the
Marriott Marquis in Times Square; in Los Angeles on April 16 at the Westin Bonaventure; and in
San Francisco on May 14 at San Francisco Marriott Marquis.
