The Media Society is to honour Michael Grade - former BBC chairman, ITV executive chairman and Channel 4 chief executive - for his outstanding contribution to the British media.
He will receive the award at a dinner on 19 May at London's St Pancras Renaissance hotel. The speakers will include writer and comedian Barry Cryer, broadcaster William G. Stewart and John Whittingdale, who chairs the Commons culture, media and sport select committee.
