History

The Television Academy Honors were established in 2008 to recognize "Television with a Conscience"—television programming that inspires, informs, motivates and even has the power to change lives. [1] [2]

The most recent of these Emmys, intended to have been hosted in 2023, was cancelled due to the then Writers Guild of America strike. [3]
