Rob Schilling, host of WINA’s The Schilling Show, was again recognized by the Virginias Associated Press Broadcasters, with the “Award for Best Investigative Reporting.”
Awardees were named in a May 2 online ceremony; contestants were considered from throughout Virginia and West Virginia.
Schilling’s exposé on Vigilante Vandals destroying local monuments was picked up by several other local media outlets—and ultimately led to greater oversight of these assets.
In addition, the Associated Press cited The Schilling Show’s reporting on historic Virginia issues—Setting the Jefferson Record Straight, an interview with Professor Robert Turner—with a second-place award for “Best Old Dominion Heritage.”
