Why This Contest Matters to Us
The Best of the Best contest is decided entirely by the people, and that means something to us, because that’s exactly how BEK TV got its start.

People across North Dakota were tired of big corporate TV stations pushing a message. So BEK TV set out to do something much different and that is hard to find in our country anymore - no corporate office dictating the message. No script to follow. Just real programming, made by real people, for the community we live in.

Our hosts aren’t distant celebrities. They’re your neighbors, the people who work regular jobs, raise families, and live life right alongside you. They make time to bring you local programming you won’t find anywhere else. When you vote for BEK TV, you’re not just voting for a TV station; you’re voting for a model built by and for this community, the same way it’s always been.

Thank you for six incredible years of choosing BEK TV! Let’s show North Dakota what community-powered television looks like. Vote today, tomorrow, and help us bring home the wins across all three categories!
