NZME stations have snared top prizes at the annual New Zealand Radio Awards - including the acclaimed Station of the Year title for ZM and a slew of awards for Newstalk ZB.
On the back of a ratings surge over the past 12 months, ZM took the prize for top network station from MediaWorks rivals The Edge and The Rock.
ZM's sister NZME station, Hauraki, took out the Blackie Award for the second year running - for its campaign in which hosts give sports broadcaster Scotty Stevenson an off-the-cuff phrase to use in his Sky rugby commentary each week.
The Hits' Dunedin duo Callum Procter and Patrina Roche (Callum and P) won best music breakfast in a single market.
NZME's Newstalk ZB and Radio Sport dominated the news and sport categories, with ZB night-time host Marcus Lush winning best talk presenter (other), Niva Retimanu winning best newsreader and Martin Devlin winning best sports reader/presenter.
