The National Press Club announced its annual award winners on Wednesday, and The Wall Street Journal and Bloomberg News were among the winners.
Journalists at The Wall Street Journal received the Lee Walczak Award for Political Analysis for their timely and prescient reporting on President Joe Biden’s mental acuity — coverage that was published weeks ahead of his widely criticized debate performance.
Bloomberg News earned two awards this year. Shirin Ghaffary was recognized with the Newsletter Journalism Award for Q&AI, for her insightful reporting on developments in the rapidly evolving artificial intelligence sector.
A team of Bloomberg News journalists received the Joseph D. Ryle Award for Excellence in Writing on the Problems of Geriatrics for its in-depth investigation into how scammers target elderly victims to steal their life savings — and the failure of both private financial institutions and policymakers to offer adequate protection.
The awards dinner will be held at the National Press Club on Wednesday, Aug. 27.
All of the winners are here.
