Honored to receive 2 Regional Murrow Awards for my digital team, 8 for my newsroom
Our newsroom is so excited to be honored by the Radio Television Digital News Association with eight regional Edward R. Murrow Awards for Region 10.
I am particularly proud of two of those awards:
Digital recognizes a series of special presentations I created to showcase our newsroom’s multi-year coverage of a 1989 cold case. Our investigative team brought the situation to attention, which led to a suspect being identified. Months later, I was part of the team that covered the car chase that led to his arrest. For this entry, we submitted several elements that showcased our exclusive coverage across years and across state borders.
Innovation recognizes the remarkable work of a member of my digital team who started as part of a fellowship program but wowed us all with her work product and can-do attitude. The entry we crafted for her library of work showcased a unique, experimental approach to reaching new audiences.
Regional winners are automatically considered for the prestigious national awards.
