GENERAL REPORTING

First Place
Jeannine Relly, Tucson Monthly, "Fighting Words"

"The first place item is a well-written piece about the life of a slain journalist and his publication that bucked the system in Mexico. The writing includes a lot of detail about the people and places. The reporting was also great. It brought to life the fears that journalists face in Mexico."

Second Place
Jeannine Relly, Tucson Monthly, "Going for Broke"

Third Place
Karen Weston Gonzales, "Born to be Wild"
