Christopher Conover, AZPM News Director and host of The Buzz, along with former producer Ariana Brocious, were honored by the The RIAS Berlin Commission for excellence in reporting on German-American issues. Conover received the RIAS Radio Award in 2020, but due to restrictions of the COVID-19 pandemic, was unable to formally accept it until late last week at a ceremony in Phoenix.

The RIAS Berlin Commission is a binational organization dedicated to the promotion of German-American understanding in the field of broadcasting. The awards are given for radio, TV and internet productions covering international politics, economics, social issues, cultural developments, or current events.
