EWTN News portal reports that the EWTN Global Catholic Network received more than 75 awards at the 2026 Catholic Media Awards, including 30 first-place honors across its divisions — EWTN Digital, EWTN Studios, EWTN Publishing, and EWTN News. The awards, announced at the Catholic Media Conference held June 16–19 in Atlantic City, New Jersey, recognized coverage of the death of “Pope” Francis, the election of “Pope” Leo XIV, and the lives of persecuted Christians. Michael Warsaw, chairman and CEO of EWTN, stated that the honors reflect his team’s dedication to creating opportunities for people “to encounter Jesus Christ and His Church.” The awards span categories from social media and video production to book publishing, photography, and journalism in English and Spanish. This spectacle of self-congratulation by the conciliar sect’s most powerful media apparatus reveals not fidelity to Catholic truth, but the triumph of modernist apostasy dressed in the language of evangelization.
