Honorees will be grouped around shared thematic categories, creating a narrative arc that carries through the evening.<\/p>\n \u201cThe winners of the 86th annual Peabody Awards reflect Peabody\u2019s mission to honor storytelling that has the potential to change culture, whether it\u2019s examining the destructive tactics of ICE, viewing terminal illness through a deeply personal lens, or resisting attempts to stifle free speech, we look forward to recognizing and celebrating these winners,\u201d said Jeffrey P. Jones, executive director of Peabody via statement.<\/p>\n Of the 34 total wins, HBO Max received the most awards with 6, followed by Apple TV, Disney+, Hulu, Netflix and PBS, each with 2 awards.<\/p>\n The winners of the 86th annual Peabody Awards, produced by Liz Kelly and ROK Productions, will be celebrated on Sunday, May 31, at a ceremony at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills.
