The Albany Newspaper Guild

Congratulations!

Once again, our union newsletter has fared very well in the annual CWA newsletter contest.

Even though our pressing negotiations meant we had only one newsletter last year, we managed to win three awards for it.

Please congratulate:

• Jennifer Patterson, First Place, Best Human Interest Feature for her story on Greg Montgomery’s artwork.
• Mark Hempstead, Editor, Second Place, Best Front Page.
• Tim O’Brien, Third Place, Best Opinion Column. “Will your job go to a freelancer? Or how I learned to love 1(D)."
