CALL ME BY YOUR NAME, THIS IS US Among 29th Annual GLAAD MEDIA AWARD Nominees; Full List

The nominations for the 29th Annual GLAAD Media Awards were announced today. The GLAAD Media Awards recognize and honor media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer community and the issues that affect their lives.

Among the nominees on the film side, are CALL ME BY YOUR NAME and LADY BIRD. Among the television nominees are THIS IS US and THE HANDMAID'S TALE. The ceremonies will be held in Los Angeles on April 12 at the Beverly Hilton and in New York on May 5 at the New York Hilton Midtown.

Commented GLAAD President & CEO Sarah Kate Ellis, "What people see in the media has a powerful impact on how they treat others and the GLAAD Media Awards raise the bar for media to tell LGBTQ stories that accelerate acceptance. At a time when anti-LGBTQ policies and harassment are on the rise, it is imperative that Hollywood and news media tell more LGBTQ stories that reflect the community's rich diversity - and build understanding that brings all communities closer together. This year's nominees showcase stories that span races, genres, ages, and geographies, challenge misconceptions, and broaden understanding and acceptance of LGBTQ people across the globe."
