Wired, Kiplinger finalists for Ellies

Wired magazine and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance are the only two business and personal finance magazines who are finalists for the 2012 National Magazine Awards for Digital Media.

Known as the Digital Ellies — for the Alexander Calder stabile “Elephant,” which is given to each winner — the awards will be presented on March 20 in New York City.

Wired is a finalist in the digital design category for its iPad application for its February 2011 issue. It is also a finalist in the digital media reporting category for “FBI Teaches Agents: ‘Mainstream’ Muslims Are ‘Violent, Radical.'”

Kiplinger is a finalist in the digital media personal service category for its state-by-state guide to taxes on retirees.

In addition, the tech site CNET.com is a finalist in the digital media commentary category for “Molly Rants” by Molly Wood.
