Diego Ramos Bechara editor GLAAD has announced the nominees for its 35th annual GLAAD Media Awards, with Variety earning two nods for outstanding online journalism (Michaela Jaé Rodriguez Calls Out The New York Times’ Anti-Trans Coverage & Advice for Trans Youth) and magazine overall coverage.

Other nominees include “All of Us Strangers,” “And Just Like That…,” “Bottoms,” “The Color Purple,” “Deadloch,” “Despierta America,” “Everything Now,” “Fellow Travelers,” “Heartstopper,” “Kokomo City,” “The Last of Us,” “Our Flag Means Death,” “Red, White and Royal Blue,” “Rustin,” “Sin Huellas,” “Ted Lasso” and “Yellowjackets.” These are a total of 310 nominees across 33 categories.

The GLAAD Media Awards honor media for fair, accurate and inclusive representations of LGBTQ people and issues. “For 35 years, the GLAAD Media Awards has provided the global stage for LGBTQ creators, alongside industry talent and leaders, to be celebrated and supported.

At a time when the LGBTQ community is under attack by false narratives and misinformation, when less than half of Americans say they are familiar with transgender and nonbinary people and when one in five Gen Z adults identify as LGBTQ, this year’s nominees powerfully reflect the realities of LGBTQ existence today, in our communities and around the globe,” GLAAD president and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said in a statement. “Amid a summer of union strikes across Hollywood, the stakes have never been higher to maintain the progress of LGBTQ visibility and representation across all media, from film, television, music, journalism, publishing and more.” GLAAD will also be awarding special recognition honors to “Renaissance: A Film by Beyonce” (AMC Theaters) and ten other media.
