YES Network Earns 8 New York Emmy Award Nominations

The YES Network was nominated for 38 New York Emmy Awards, giving it 384 Emmy Award nominations since its 2002 launch. YES has won a total of 80 Emmy Awards through last year's competition. The 58th annual New York Emmy Awards will be announced Saturday, May 2.

We are both deeply humbled by and greatly appreciative of the tremendous recognition bestowed on us by the New York chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts & Sciences, said John J. Filippelli, President, Production and Programming, YES Network. While the large number of nominations is reward enough, it is particularly gratifying that YES was recognized for its work in every single major category. Our team's ability to document and capture the live theatre that is sports, all of the emotions and the storylines, is reflective of the tireless, selfless nature of our incredibly talented, dedicated and passionate team here at YES.
