Joy Behar to be honored at 21st Annual GLAAD Media Awards

The Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) announced today that Daytime Emmy award-winning talk show host and comedian Joy Behar will receive the Excellence in Media Award at the 21st Annual GLAAD Media Awards Presented in New York by IBM and Prudential on March 13, 2010 at the Marriott Marquis.

The GLAAD Media Awards elevate and promote fair, accurate and inclusive stories of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) issues, people and allies that have increased awareness, understanding and respect for the lives of LGBT people. The GLAAD Media Awards also fund GLAAD’s work to amplify stories of LGBT people and issues that build support for equality.

“For bringing stories of our community that build understanding and acceptance into the homes of millions of Americans, we are proud to honor Joy Behar this year with the Excellence in Media Award,” said GLAAD President Jarrett Barrios.
