Longtime Ktla entertainment anchor Sam Rubin, who died earlier this year, received the 76th Los Angeles Area Emmy Governors Award on Saturday night, given posthumously to recognize his “legacy of more than three decades of entertainment news reporting for Ktla.”
Rubin also won an Emmy in the entertainment news category, for his “Ktla Morning News” coverage of the SAG-AFTRA strike last year.
Overall, pubcaster Kcet (which now calls itself “PBS SoCal Plus”) dominated with ten wins, including in categories such as culture/history (“Legacy 10 Days In Watts”), L.A. local color (“Angel City Press: L.A.

Kvea is clearly doing something right. The Telemundo-owned Los Angeles station, part of a duopoly with sister NBC outlet Knbc, swept this year’s key newscast categories at the 75th Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards. The Spanish language station dominated the evening, winning the Emmys for evening (7 p.m. to 12 a.m.), daytime (11 a.m. to 7 p.m.) and morning (4 a.m. to 11 a.m.) newscasts.
Kvea had won the daytime newscast Emmy last year as well.
Overall, Kvea earned eight L.A. Area Emmy awards this year, tied with local public broadcaster Kcet. (That was also up from Kcet’s haul of six last year.) Given the tie with Kvea, that still preserves Kcet’s streak of this being the seventh year in a row that Kcet won the most.
The Kcbs/Kcal duopoly was next in line, with four wins, while ABC-owned Kabc and cabler Spectrum SportsNet LA were next with three.

Public broadcaster Kcet — part of a PBS duopoly with Koce “PBS SoCal” — is back on top at the Los Angeles Area Emmys. Thanks to locally produced series like “Artbound” and “Broken Bread,” Kcet dominated the L.A. area Emmy nominations, announced Tuesday, with 24.
That’s a return to the top spot among nominees, and up from 15 last year. Cable news outlet Spectrum News 1, which dominated last year’s Emmy nominations, was down to 14 this year (vs. 23 in 2022) — still good enough for third place.

In 1965 singer Rubén Guevara got his big break on national TV, performing on the ABC musical variety series Shindig! There was just one catch. He had to drop his real name in favor of an acceptably anglo one: Jay P. Mobey.
There he was on black and white TV, primetime, shaking his groove thing with Tina Turner and Bo Diddley, commanding the stage, under a name that erased his Mexican-American identity.
“I didn’t want to change my name,” Guevara remembers in the new documentary Con Safos. “I was torn about it, but I was young and I wanted to make a name for myself. I just never imagined I’d have to do it with a made up one.”
The documentary, directed by Michael Vargas and Moni Vargas, premieres Wednesday night on Kcet, as the first episode of the PBS station’s new season of Artbound. The film recounts...

Public broadcaster Kcet once again led all local TV stations in nominations for the Los Angeles Area Emmy Awards, announced on Tuesday by the Television Academy. Kcet landed 23 nods this year overall, up from 20 last year. It was followed by Telemundo’s Kvea, which boasted 21 noms.
After that, with 19 nominations, was relative newcomer Spectrum News 1, the cable channel that launched in 2018 and has made waves for its enterprise reports, features and coverage of Southern California. Then came Univision’s Kmex, with 16.
Among the traditional English-language commercial broadcasters, Kabc-tv led with 12 nominations. That’s quite a change from the days when management at the ABC-owned station declined to submit Kabc in the local Emmy race.
As usual, all stations that enter are immediately nominated in the daily morning newscast (4 a.m. to 11 a.m.), daily daytime newscast (11 a.m. to 7 p.m.), and daily evening newscast (7 p.m. to 12 a.
