GLAAD announced its nominees for the 19th annual GLAAD Media Awards yesterday in Sundance. We’ve included the entire list after the jump, but we’d like to point out that trans issues and people have a special presence:

…Material based on transgender issues has earned a number of nominations this year – most notably the work of columnist Christine Daniels in the LA Times, nominated as Outstanding Newspaper Columnist. Daniels received a fair bit of media attention in April 2007 as male sportswriter Mike Penner, who revealed in a surprising column that he was a transsexual male and would be undergoing a sex-change operation. Penner returned to the LAT – and her sports column – as Christine Daniels after the surgery and now blogs about her transition the blog, “A Woman In Progress.” Similarly-themed articles in Newsweek, the St. Petersburg Times, and Salon and on TV on MSNBC, the Tyra Banks and Oprah Winfrey shows, 20/20 and the now-defunct Paula Zahn Live on CNN were also honored.

If only GLAAD honcho Neil Giuliano and his gays were running Congress, huh?
