Beyoncé’s Lemonade, Donald Glover’s “Atlanta” Win Peabody Awards

Beyoncé’s 2016 album Lemonade and Donald Glover’s FX series “Atlanta” were among the winners at this year’s Peabody Awards, according to The Hollywood Reporter. The Peabody Awards recognize excellence in radio and television broadcasting, as well as online media. The entertainment category produced seven winners, including the HBO comedy series “Veep” and the FX comedy series “Better Things.” The awards will be given out May 20 at a gala hosted by Rashida Jones. On Tuesday ESPN’s docuseries O.J.: Made in America and Ava DuVernay’s 13th were announced as two of the 12 documentary winners.

This is the latest in a series of wins for both Lemonade and “Atlanta.” Lemonade won two Grammys in February, including Best Urban Contemporary Album. At this year’s Golden Globes, “Atlanta” scored wins for Best Television Series — Comedy or Musical and Best Actor in a TV Series — Comedy or Musical (for Donald Glover’s portrayal of Earnest “Earn” Marks).
