052: Recognition
It's Employee Recognition Week at work and Tory Hargro, Kevin Spear and I were awarded Best Multimedia of 2007 for our piece on Col. Mike McCoy today. The finalists were determined in-house, and the winner was chosen by a series of judges outside the paper, but within the Tribune network.
What the judges (Bobby Roessner, Managing Editor of the Hartford Courant; Kerry Luft, Associate Managing Editor for Foreign News at the Chicago Tribune; Calvin Lawrence, former Associate Managing Editor for national, international and state news at Newsday) had to say: "The Sentinel could have served up Col. McCoy as another humdrum anniversary story. Instead, the staff stitched together a remarkable interactive experience that was both a history lesson and a prime example of online journalism's scope and uniqueness."
It's nice getting recognition for projects into which you put a lot of blood and sweat.
