Shell game series wins another award for Reuters

Steve Adler, the editor in chief at Reuters, sent out the following award announcement on Thursday to the staff:

I’m pleased to report that Reuters has been named a winner of a prestigious National Press Club Award, which honor the best of U.S. journalism.
The Shell Games series was awarded first prize in the Consumer Journalism, Periodicals category. Judges cited the series’ “comprehensive reporting on an issue of national importance” and noted that the “authors took the complex subject of shell corporations and explained the impact on people — especially in holding companies accountable.”
This honor marks the fourth award that our shell games coverage has received. The series also picked up a Gerald Loeb Award and a New York Press Club Award, and the first story in the series was awarded a London Foreign Press Association Award last year.
Please join me in congratulating Brian Grow, Kelly Carr, Laurence Fletcher, Nanette Byrnes, Matthew Bigg, Joshua Schneyer, Sara Ledwith, and Cynthia Johnston on their National Press Club Award win.
