Finalists for the 2016 New York State Associated Press Association Broadcast Awards have been announced and include a number of Syracuse students and, for the first time, a morning news program (“Mornings on the Hill,” also known as MOTH) produced by students under the guidance of Assistant Professor Suzanne Lysak.
