On the same day that the Pulitzer prize winners were announced, Editor & Publisher also announced the finalists for its EPpy Awards, which up until now I had never heard of. There’s just so many journalism awards I tend to miss some of them.
Unless something escaped me, the Globe and Mail is the only Canadian finalist, and it’s in three categories. Once again I point out that the announcement fails to include any links, so I do so here:
- Best Newspaper Affiliated Web Site with more than one million unique monthly visitors
- The Globe and Mail, globeandmail.com
- The Charlotte Observer, charlotteobserver.com
- The Wall Street Journal Online, WSJ.com
- Best Web Special Feature – Enterprise, with more than one million unique monthly visitors
- Breakdown: Canada’s Mental Health Crisis, globeandmail.com (also nominated for a National Newspaper Award)
- Hemeroteca La Vanguardia, La Vanguardia.es
- NYTimes.com, “Kremlin Rules“
- Best Web Special Feature- News or Event, with more than one million unique monthly visitors
- Talking to the Taliban, globeandmail.com (also nominated for a National Newspaper Award)
- Mexico Under Siege, latimes.com
- NYTimes.com, Election 2008
- Talking to the Taliban, globeandmail.com (also nominated for a National Newspaper Award)
UPDATE (May 7): Winners announced, and bolded above.
