Six and Counting!

Make BEK TV a Best of the Best Winner for A Sixth Year

June 2026

Five years ago, our loyal BEK TV viewers showed up for us in a big way. Then you did it again. And again. And again. And again.

For five consecutive years, you’ve helped BEK TV win ‘Best Local TV Station’ titles as part of the Bismarck Tribune’s Best of the Best contest. That’s five years of proof that this community values bold, independent, homegrown television. It’s also five years of fulfilling a demand by viewers to provide unscripted and uncensored television. So, as we near this year’s nomination phase, we’re counting on you to get us on the voting ballot for a sixth year!

Beginning June 3, we’re asking that you take just a couple minutes to nominate BEK TV as ‘Best Local TV Station’ on the Best of the Best nomination page. And while you’re there, hop over to the Best TV Personality nomination page, and enter your favorite BEK TV host!

The top five nominees in each category will move on to the final voting round, and winners in each category will be revealed in the Tribune's Best of the Best special issue later this year. Here’s a breakdown of each phase of the contest:

Phase I: Nominations – June 3 - 24

Phase II: Voting – July 22 - August 12

Phase III: Winners Announced – September 19

The time is almost here for you to help keep our streak alive! From wall-to-wall live sports coverage and original shows, to uncensored news and real opinions, BEK TV is proud to be the region's largest producer of local sports, news, and entertainment. We stay true to our roots: local stories, real voices, no corporate script.

Five straight wins is a dynasty. Six would be a statement. If you value bold, independent programming and hometown coverage you can trust, show your support and nominate BEK TV.
