Fall newspaper awards...
Let the judging begin!

The entries are in and the judging will take place in the next few weeks for NENPA's fall awards competition -- including New England Newspaper of the Year, Publick Occurrences, the Allan B. Rogers Editorial Award, and the Morley L. Piper First Amendment Award. A distinguished panel of industry professionals will judge the submissions.
 
This year’s Newspaper of the Year competition is particularly exciting, because - for the first time - the judging will be conducted on two levels. In addition to the panel of industry professionals, we will also have focus groups of newspaper readers evaluate the entries. Editors and publishers will be invited to watch the focus group discussions.
 
Be sure to mark you calendar -- the fall conference and awards luncheon will take place on Thursday, October 21 at the Crowne Plaza in Natick, MA.
