“High and Mighty”

A reader informs me that Jason DeParle has won the NY Public Library’s Bernstein Award for Excellence in Journalism, an award whose dignified purpose seemingly repels media interest (the first link provided goes to the Library’s own press release). Previous winners include Dana Priest for The Mission: Waging War and Keeping Peace with America’s Military and Keith Bradsher for the awesomely titled High and Mighty: SUVs — The World’s Most Dangerous Vehicles and How They Got That Way.

Create a social media strategy, launch your campaign, and track the results in our Social Media Marketing Boot Camp starting February 16.
