The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel was the winner of the National Headliner Award for business news coverage, business commentary and/or business columns by an individual or team.
“In the Shadows” by Raquel Rutledge, John Diedrich and Daphne Chen of the Journal Sentinel captured the award.
The judges wrote, “Hospital workers have been hailed as heroes for their front-line efforts during the coronavirus pandemic. But little attention is given to the violence these workers experience in a hospital itself or in its parking garage. Raquel Rutledge, John Diedrich and Daphne Chen of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel make clear in their package how inaction by many hospitals has put these hospital workers in additional danger. An eye-opener.”
Second place went to “SBA Fraud” by Bloomberg News while third place went to “Health Care Giants Benefit With COVID Relief Funds” by Jordan Rau and Rachana Pradhan of KHN in The Washington Post.
