Named for two-time Pulitzer Prize winners Don Barlett and Jim Steele, the fifth annual awards celebrate the best in print and online investigative business journalism. This year, a bronze award of $1,000 has been added, joining the gold award of $5,000 and the silver award of $2,000.
“Don and I have an informal motto: ‘Tell the reader something they don’t know,'” said Steele. “It sounds simple. Yet a lot of journalism is a rehash of what people already know.”
Judges will be looking for investigative enterprise, strong business theme, elegant writing style, clarity and impact.
Entries must have appeared in print or online in the year that ended June 30, 2011. Deadline to apply online is Aug. 1.
