'Today' to receive institutional award

"Today", NBC’s pioneering morning news program, has won the Institutional Award from the Peabody Awards program. For more than 70 years, the "Today" show's live broadcasts have provided viewers with entertaining and important top-of-the-day connections to news, politics, celebrity, sports, home life and weather.

Selected by the Peabody Board of Jurors, the Institutional Award recognizes institutions and organizations, as well as series and programs, for their enduring body of work and their iconic impact on both the media landscape and the public imagination.
