Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards: Sam Rubin Wins Posthumously

KCET topped the list of Los Angeles TV stations with the most wins,10, at the 76th local Emmy Awards handed out by the Television Academy Saturday. It was followed by KVEA and Spectrum News 1 with 4 each, ABC7 and CBS2/KCAL9 with 3 and KTLA5 and Spectrum SportsNet with two.

One of KTLA5’s two Emmys went to the station’s veteran KTLA entertainment reporter Sam Rubin, who died of a heart attack in May. He was recognized for his news coverage of the SAG-AFTRA strike.

Three stations split the honors for Regularly Scheduled Newscast in the different day parts: Spectrum News 1 (morning), KCAL (Daytime) and KVEA (evening).
