The Telly Awards has named Dateline Health as a People’s Telly Silver winner in the 35th Annual Telly Awards for its piece titled, “Joint Preservation and Pain Management.” This is Dateline Health’s fourth Telly Award, having received two in 2008 and another in 2012. This year’s Telly Awards received nearly 12,000 entries from all 50 states and numerous countries.
The Telly Awards was founded in 1979 and is the premier award honoring outstanding local, regional, and cable TV commercials and programs, the finest video and film productions, and online commercials, video and films.
