Last night, the winners of the Statesman’s Texas Social Media Awards were announced at a ceremony at the ACL Live at Moody Theater.
The overall winner was Whole Foods. You can read all about it in Brian Gaar’s story where you’ll find a video, and see a photo gallery from the event here.
I was one of the judges for the TSMA awards (which we call “The T’SMAckies” for short) along with the head of the event, social media editor Robert Quigley, food writer Addie Broyles and Mathilde Piard, social media manager in the digital division of the Statesman’s parent company Cox Media Group in Atlanta.
You can see the original list of nominees and comments here. The 25 winners and overall winners were chosen from more than 358 Texas individuals and organizations nominated by the public.
