Times biz staff wins Mirror Awards

Dade Hayes of Variety writes about how the New York Times business columnist Joe Nocera and the paper’s Monday business section coverage of the media were winners in this year’s Mirror Awards.

Hayes writes, “Nocera, a Times columnist, won for best commentary and Auletta for best single article, a New Yorker piece called ‘Promises, Promises’ that, like many other Mirror finalists, examined the impact of Dow Jones being bought by News Corp.

“In his acceptance speech, Nocera hailed former Dow Jones owners the Bancroft family, ‘without whose dysfunction much memorable journalism would not have been created.’

The Times‘ media-focused Monday section won for overall excellence. Best investigative piece went to public TV’s “Frontline” for two specials examining the TV news biz. Jeff Coplon won for best profile for his New York magazine piece on late Times managing editor Gerald Boyd.”
