The 2010 Alma Awards will not be broadcast on ABC this year, or on any other network. The Alma Awards honor positive portrayals of Latinos in the entertainment industry and has aired on ABC each fall for the last several years. Delia de la Vara, a producer of the awards show and the VP of the National Council of La Raza (NCLR) said the Alma Awards will likely return in 2011 on a different network. “We’re working toward a 2011 fall broadcast of the show during Hispanic Heritage Month,” said de la Vara. “That’s the right time to showcase the stories about the contributions that Latinos are making in television, film, music and sports.”
