found it:

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AllowPaging="True" 
        AllowSorting="True" AutoGenerateColumns="False" CellPadding="4" 
        DataKeyNames="ID" DataSourceID="HomeObjectDataSource" ForeColor="Black" 
        BackColor="#CCCCCC" BorderColor="#999999" BorderStyle="Solid" BorderWidth="3px" 
        CellSpacing="2" Width="900px">
        <FooterStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" />
        <RowStyle BackColor="White" />
        <Columns>
            <asp:HyperLinkField DataNavigateUrlFields="ID" 
                DataNavigateUrlFormatString="DownloadPage.aspx?ID={0}" HeaderText="Download" 
                Text="Download" />
            <asp:BoundField DataField="Title" HeaderText="Title" SortExpression="Title" />
            <asp:BoundField DataField="Category" HeaderText="Category" 
                SortExpression="Category" />
            <asp:BoundField DataField="UploadedDate" HeaderText="Uploaded Date" 
                SortExpression="UploadedDate" DataFormatString="{0:d}" />
            <asp:BoundField DataField="PublishedDate" HeaderText="Published Date" 
                SortExpression="PublishedDate" DataFormatString="{0:d}" />
        </Columns>
        <PagerStyle BackColor="#CCCCCC" ForeColor="Black" HorizontalAlign="Left" />
        <SelectedRowStyle BackColor="#000099" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
        <HeaderStyle BackColor="Black" Font-Bold="True" ForeColor="White" />
    </asp:GridView>

notice this part:

<asp:BoundField DataField="PublishedDate" HeaderText="Published Date" 
                SortExpression="PublishedDate" DataFormatString="{0:d}" />

this is how to display the date:

DataFormatString="{0:d}"
