The ASNE Awards

The ASNE Distinguished Writing Awards and Jesse Laventhol Prizes are
designed to foster, recognize, and reward excellence in writing in
daily newspapers, eligible news services and ASNE member
publications. The Community Service Photojournalism Award recognizes
a body of work that contributes to an improvement or heightened
awareness in the community through photography.

Award for Editorial Leadership

Created in 2001 to recognize leaders who make a major difference on
behalf of American newspapers. Nominees can be top editors,
assignment editors or people from outside the newsroom who have
championed great journalism during their careers.

Look for a call for nominations in December.
