Overseas Press Club names biz reporting award winners
The Overseas Push Club named its winners, together with two for business enterprise journalism.
The Malcolm Forbes Award for greatest global business news reporting in newspapers, information companies, magazines or electronic went to International Consortium of Investigative Journalists, The Washington Submit, Miami Herald and approximately 150 media partners for “The Pandora Papers.”
The judges wrote, “Another tour de drive by the ICIJ, the Pandora Papers introduced jointly journalists from dozens of information companies to rummage by way of a treasure trove of much more than 11 million leaked paperwork showing how funds and energy function in the 21st century.”
The Morton Frank Award for very best intercontinental organization information reporting in Tv set, video, radio, audio or podcast went to Sandy Tolan, Euclides Cordero Nuel and Michael Montgomery of Reveal from the Center for Investigative Reporting, PRX and Mom Jones, with help from the Pulitzer Center, for “The Bitter Perform Powering Sugar.”
The judges wrote, “This detailed investigation by Sandy Tolan and Euclides Cordero Nuel took listeners deep into the sugar cane harvesting camps manned by Haitian immigrants in the Dominican Republic. The reporting, which has prompted scrutiny from Congress and the Office of Labor, documented workers enduring $4 a working day wages, staggering financial debt, substandard housing and woeful clinical treatment although boosting Central Romana Corp.’s profitability.”
