RTNDA Distinguished Achievement Award Is Yours For . . . "The Outstanding News Story Broadcast" for 1957, Your sister Meredith Stations join in congratulating the 8 -man KCMO news staff for winning another national award — the Distinguished Achievement Award from RadioTelevision News Directors Association for your coverage of the May 20th tornado which struck the Ruskin Heights-Hickman Mills area in Missouri. KCMO-Radio is one of only 8 radio-television stations to be so honored. KCMO-Radio was cited by the same group in 1951 for "overall news operation" and was also honored with the Sigma Delta Chi award for radio news coverage. Nice goin', KCMO-Radio! Looks like another powerful reason for advertisers and agencies to choose the strongest voice in Greater Kansas City — KCMO-Radio, serving the 10 -billion-dollar-plus MidAmerica market.
