Institutional Award: CBS Television and Walter Lippman for Television Contribution to International Understanding
CBS Television, Walter Lippmann
For the program which did the most to promote international understanding during 1961, a Peabody special award goes to Walter Lippmann, on whose perceptive and reasonable analysis of a world in crisis we all rely. We also salute the Columbia Broadcasting System for its astuteness in making Mr. Lippmann’s telecasts an annual feature.
