The Globe and Mail and the Toronto Star lead the way in nominations for National Newspaper Awards. I'm surprised and happy to be among the 10 Globe and Mail journalists whose work has been highlighted.
Pieces I did on the CIBC faxing customer info to West Virginia are nominated in the business category. Friend and former colleague David Olive, now at the Star, is also a finalist in the category as is Grant Robertson of the Calgary Herald.
The awards will be presented in Ottawa on June 4.
