Best Radio Personality or Team

The Breakfast Boys and Molly, KZZU-FM

"They are very witty — a little off the wall without becoming a parody. They are personable if you see them out and about. They support our community. Very entertaining." — Cherrie F.

2nd: Jay and Kevin, KDRK; 3rd: The Radio Men, KKZX


Best Radio Station

KZZU-FM

"Nobody else plays the whole top 40. Others play it selectively, like by genre. I like having a little Kanye mixed in with my Death Cab." — Adrienne I.

2nd: KPBX; 3rd: Rock 94.5


Best TV Sportscaster

Dennis Patchin, KXLY

"I think Dennis is about as good as you get. He's articulate, and he can call a game very quickly — he knows who the players are and what the game is all about." — Bob B.

2nd: Tom Hudson, KREM; 3rd: John Fritz, KHQ


Best TV Weathercaster

Tom Sherry, KREM

"Tom's such an outgoing type of guy — kind of a man for all seasons, so to speak. He reminds me of Ira Joe Fisher, who started at KHQ [and then went on to a career at New York's WCBS]." — Bob B.

2nd: George Maupin, KHQ; 3rd: Kris Crocker, KXLY


Best TV Anchorperson

Stephanie Vigil, KHQ

"There's always too much concern about how women broadcasters look, but Stephanie is a real professional. She and Dan [Kleckner] make a good team — they're very compatible." — Bob B.

2nd: Nadine Woodward, KREM; 3rd: Randy Shaw, KREM
