Impress your administration — win an award! Part II
January 16, 2008 by lancespeere
Prove to your administration that ethics aren’t dead at your publication — enter and win an award for that solid coverage of a particularly thorny issue the college president would prefer to just go away. The University of Oregon’s Payne Awards are just the place to get that recognition.
The Payne Awards for Ethics in Journalism honor journalists who encourage public trust in the media by courageously practicing the highest standards of the profession in the face of political or economic pressures.
The Payne Awards seek entries from news organizations, individual journalists and student journalists in broadcasting, print or new media.
Nominations are being accepted until February 25, 2008, for ethical dilemmas encountered in 2007. Journalists and outlets can nominate themselves or be nominated by a third party.
Nomination forms can be found here.
