For those of us in Lake Worth and surrounding areas these awards are nothing new. Most of you will recall those joyous days, honking of horns, and back-slapping after our previous beat reporter, Chris Persaud, won his two awards. He then took his new-found fame and went to to bigger and better things.
There was that one bump in the road though when he had to publish a correction, and then a correction to the correction, which is likely a first in the history of newspaper publishing.
On this recent award news is an article by Andrew Marra on "investigative reporting for newspapers with daily circulations between 50,000 and 100,000". You can see this for yourself at the Society of Professional Journalism website.
Congratulations!
It will be interesting to see if and when the Post pivots to their next investigation. Go to the next blog post below or use this link to see an idea for a series with information to be found on the Post's very own website.
