The GLAAD Media Awards were created in 1990 by the Gay & Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) to recognize and honor the mainstream media for their fair, accurate and inclusive representations of the LGBT community.

The award began in 1998, and was televised on ITV before being dropped in 2006 after disagreements over the phone voting element.
