Emmy Awards Cites an Asbestos Documentary for Nomination
Posted on July 29th, 2008 in Asbestos News |
A film that tells the story of a small Montana town burdened by the ill effects that asbestos has brought their community was recently nominated for an Emmy award under the category of “Outstanding Continuing Coverage of a News Story Long Form”. The film documentary “Libby, Montana” has been praised since last August for featuring the situation that has befallen the residents caused by the existence of W.R. Grace and Company asbestos contaminated vermiculite mine in their town for more than 30 years.
It is believed that whether or not people will be held liable for what had happened in the lives of these people affected by asbestos, the film will hopefully advance knowledge and concern for the community and everyone who will be able to watch it.
