The win came on the one-year anniversary of the mass shooting at a concert crowd that claimed 58 lives and left more than 850 people wounded.

"I'm particularly proud to be here for tonight's celebration of News and Documentaries, given the intersection at which we find journalism and political discourse these days," NATAS chairman Terry O'Reilly said. "At a time when some seek to perpetuate politically useful falsehoods in the furtherance of partisan ideology, we have never needed our nation's journalists and documentarians more."

As usual, PBS came into the trophy with a leading 45 nominations, paced by 15 for Frontline , followed by PBS (31),  CNN  (22),  HBO  (22) and ABC (20).
