GB News was highly commended in the Broadcast News Organisation of the Year category at the Society of Editors’ 2026 Media Freedom Awards. The recognition acknowledges the channel’s work, while the awards more broadly celebrate journalism that serves the public interest and supports media freedom.

The ceremony took place at the Underglobe on 11 November and brought together more than 200 journalists from across the UK. Society of Editors chief executive Dawn Alford said the awards recognise journalism’s role in holding power to account and informing the public; GB News editorial director Mick Booker credited the team’s work. The commendation follows the channel’s fourth consecutive Tric Award for Best News Programme, won four months earlier.
