2A Sunday, January 14, 2024 The Times, Gainesville, Georgia I gainesvilletimes.com Emmy’s release list of TV’s 75 biggest moments ahead of show AP Photo Martin Luther King Jr. addresses marchers during his “I Have a Dream” speech at the Lincoln Memorial on Aug. 28, 1963, in Washington. The Television Academy, which presents the Emmy Awards, announced on Friday, Jan. 12, what it calls the top 75 moments in television history ahead of the ceremo ny’s 75th edition, being held on Monday, Jan. 15. The Associated Press LOS ANGELES — The moon landing, the Beatles' first appearance on Ameri can TV and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s “I Have a Dream” speech are among the 75 Most Impactful Tele vision Moments as ranked by the Television Academy before Monday's 75th edition of the Emmy Awards. Academy members from the television industry col laborated with academics to cull eight decades of TV his tory and vote on the list that was revealed Friday. Atop it they put Apollo 1 l's 1969 first landing on the moon, and Neil Armstrong's dec laration of a ‘‘giant leap for mankind.” In second they put coverage of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center, and in third the Beatles' 1964 appearance on ‘‘The Ed Sul livan Show.” King's ‘‘I Have a Dream” speech, delivered at the March on Washington in 1963, is ranked No. 6. This year's Emmy Awards, delayed four months because of Hollywood's actors and writers strikes, comes on the MLK holiday. While the top of the list is dominated by news events, plenty of fictional moments from classic TV dramas, comedies and specials appear too, including Hawkeye bid ding farewell to best buddy B.J., and Korea, in the 1983 final episode of M*A*S*H (No. 8), Linus reciting the nativity story in 1965’s ‘‘A Charlie Brown Christmas” (No. 14), and, from 2007, the much-debated, cut-to-black final moment of “ The Sopra nos ” (No. 36). The rankings include one scene from a show nominated this year — the last moments of Nick Offerman and Mur ray Bartlett on HBO's “ The Last of Us ” (No. 56). Offer- man already won an Emmy for the special episode last week and ‘‘The Last of Us” is among the top nominees, along with ‘‘Succession,” ‘‘The White Lotus” and ‘‘Ted Lasso,” at Monday's Emmys. Also making the list are the episode of ‘‘Ellen” where Ellen DeGeneres reveals she’s gay (No. 13), the infa mous ‘‘Soup Nazi” episode of ‘‘Seinfeld” (No. 27), the debut of Michael Jackson's ‘‘Thriller” video (No. 48), Whitney Houston's Super Bowl “Star Spangled Ban ner” performance (No. 65) and several moments from “Sesame Street” and “Mister Roger's Neighborhood.” The Emmys are being broadcast live from Los Angeles on Monday begin ning at 8 p.m. EST on Fox.

The pursuit of truth is a fundamental principle of journalism. But the truth is not always apparent or known immediately. A professional journalist’s role is to report as completely and impartially as possible verifiable facts so readers can, based on their own knowledge and experience, determine what they believe to be the truth. That is often an ongoing pursuit as journalists work to uncover stories and follow those stories wherever they lead, regardless of preconceived ideas. The news they report is separate from the opinions shared in the pages of The Times, which include those by its editorial board, columnists, political cartoonists and readers who submit letters to the editor. The presentation of both news and opinions is designed to educate, entertain and foster community conversation. Readers are encouraged to challenge and sharpen their perceptions based on that presentation. And we encourage readers to do the same for us, offering news tips, criticisms and questions. As your honestly local news source, we serve our readers first. Find us on these platforms or reach out to our newsroom at news@gainesvilletimes. com or 770-718-3435.
