The magazine
bested Entertainment Weekly, People, POZ, and Variety in
the category. The Advocate had also won the category in 2020.
“Thank you to
GLAAD for this honor at a time when it’s especially incumbent upon LGBTQ+ news
outlets to shine a light on conservative attacks on queer people with onslaught
of anti-trans and anti-LGBTQ+ bills cropping up around the country,” said Advocate Editor
in Chief Tracy E. Gilchrist. “I’m proud of and thankful for our small team of
dedicated editors, writers, designers, and those in circulation, sales, and
marketing who ensure the work we do makes an impact. It’s a gift to serve
LGBTQ+ people and to be a part of The Advocate’s 55-year legacy.”
The GLAAD
Media Awards, established in 1990, “honor media for fair, accurate, and
inclusive representations of LGBTQ people and issues,” in the words of GLAAD.
In addition to print and digital media, GLAAD honors film and television
productions that excel at this purpose. This year’s nominees were published,
released, or broadcast between January 1 and December 31, 2021, according to a
press release.
There will be
another ceremony May 6 at the Hilton Midtown in New York City.
