Earlier this month, Viacom chalked up 13 Webby Award nominations

Earlier this month, Viacom chalked up 13 Webby Award nominations, with Viacom Velocity, VH1, MTV, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, Viacom International Media Networks (VIMN), and Paramount Pictures vying with the rest of the best-of-the-internet for top honors.

This week, the Webbys announced the winners, and Viacom brought home five awards – four Webby People’s Voice honors, and one Webby Award chosen by the Academy of Digital Arts and Sciences 2,000-member panel:

WEBBY AWARD

The Daily Show: Between the Scenes – Film & Video/General/Comedy: Long Form or Series

 

PEOPLE’S VOICE AWARD

  • The Daily Show: Make Trump Tweets Eight Again – Websites/General/Humor
  • The Daily Show social media – Social/Features, Best Writing
  • The Daily Show social media – Social/Content & Marketing
  • Viacom Velocity – VH1 Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party – Social/Content & Marketing/Food & Drink

Viacom also earned 14 honoree spots – across Nickelodeon, MTV, Viacom Catalyst, VIMN, Paramount Network and Velocity – in this year’s Webbys, meaning the work was some of the best of the year, but was not eligible for any awards.

The Webby Awards will host an award show in New York City on May 14. Fans can stream the show on the Webby website the following morning.
