This week my blog is paying homage to my fellow borderbeat reporters and editiors as well as our leader, Professor Jay Rochlin. As you may or may not know our website was up for best Online Publication from the Online Journalism Awards.
The awards were held this past Friday and Saturday in Toronto, Canada. Borderbeat was up for best student journalism online publication and we won! We share the honor with our fellow University of Nevada reporters, but nonetheless it was a extreme honor just to be nominated.
Other catagories for the Online Journalism awards saw the like of USA Today as well as the online sites for The New York Times. The Online Journalism Association selected 70 finalists in September and we have long been awaiting the results!
An article online, and the only of which I have been able to locate thus far, shares our accomplishment online and it's a cool article to check out.
Our reporters work hard to bring border issues to a head online, and we manage to do it swiftly while tackling new forms of multimedia to keep things interesting and interactive for you, the reader.
Recently a portion of the Border Beat team went down to Nogales for a day to cover the St. Andrews Children's health clinic in Noglaes that provides healcare to needing children.
So once again congratulations guys! keep up the good work, and see you Monday!
