Sheera Frankel and Cecilia Kang
The Society for Advancing Business Editing and Writing announced Monday that “An Ugly Truth: Inside Facebook’s Battle for Domination” is the winner for its second annual Best in Business Book Awards.
The competition recognizes and celebrates outstanding business journalism in books published between July 31, 2020, and July 31, 2021.
The book is written by New York Times technology reporters Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang, and was published by HarperCollins.
“’An Ugly Truth’ focuses on the tech story of the year – Facebook’s fall from grace,” said Pattie Sellers, head judge and co-CEO of SellersEaston Media. “Sheera Frenkel and Cecilia Kang’s storytelling is rigorous, compelling, and timely.”
Kang and Frenkel will be recognized during a webinar “A Conversation with Best in Business Book Award Winner.” The date and time will be announced later.
The judges also selected two finalists from the 30 entries received — “The Devil’s Playbook: Big Tobacco, Juul, and the Addiction of a New Generation” by Lauren Etter (published by Crown) and “The Day the World Stops Shopping: How Consumerism Saves the Environment and Ourselves” by J.B.
