KUT News won two National Edward R. Murrow Awards – among the most respected journalism awards in the world – for Nathan Bernier's report on I-35 noise concerns and Mose Buchele's story about a group of crows that has been visiting an East Austin library for years, written in the style of Edgar Allan Poe’s "The Raven.” These are the 9th and 10th National #Murrows for the KUT newsroom, which is funded by the local community.

Jody Denberg – a bona fide radio legend – retires from the airwaves tomorrow, Aug. 2. “My wife retired in March. I want to be with her. I’m going to be 65 the day I retire. I want to get some time in a cooler climate and not have to work. I’ve been on the air five to six times a week for 40 years. I just feel like it’s a good time to bow out at the top. KUTX won all these awards this year. Somehow I won the best DJ award this year – 37 years after I won it the first time – before anyone knew I was retiring. It was sort of like a gift from the heavens.” Read McCord Jeff's interview with Jody. https://lnkd.in/g6btQ65V

There are so many great reasons to support KUT & KUTX Public Media but these alpacas are my personal favorite. Help us protect these furry news junkies from predators with in-depth, fact-based journalism! donate.kut.org
