CBS News and six local television stations will be among the recipients of the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Awards honoring outstanding work in broadcast journalism at a ceremony later this month.

Columbia’s Graduate School of Journalism today announced the winners of the 2010 duPont Awards, which include a first ever prize for Web-based production, awarded to MediaStorm, a multimedia production studio.

CBS News will take home two awards, one recognizing Katie Couric‘s interviews with Sarah Palin and a second honoring the network’s report “Children of the Recession.” NPR, HBO and American Radioworks are also among the winners, along with several local television stations — the highest number ever to win duPont awards in more than two decades.

The winners will receive their prizes, gold or silver batons, at an award ceremony on January 21 at Columbia, hosted by PBS’ Gwen Ifill. NBC News chief foreign correspondent Richard Engel will also be on hand to help present the awards.
