What a stunning group of nominees - journalists who grapple with hard ethical questions while doing outstanding reporting.

#ShadidAward nominations are due by the end of day today. This award recognizes the difficult, behind-the-scenes decisions reporters make in fulfilling their ethical obligations to sources, to people caught up in news events, and to the public at large: ethics.journalism.wisc.edu/shadid-award/s…

Great opportunity here for journalists who grappled with ethical issues in their reporting in 2022.
