Digital First Media will recognize the best work in each of our eight geographic clusters, starting with awards for the best work in September. We want a nickname for the awards and invite employees to vote for one of the following choices.
Thanks to all employees who suggested names. We had 19 suggestions, most of them serious, and we thank you all, even — perhaps especially — for the humorous ones. Jim Brady and I narrowed the list to the four on the ballot. Please choose the name you like best. Please vote only once and only if you’re a DFM staff member.
I think we should ditch the childish names and just refer to them as the awards or the in-house awards. Cutesy names just bring it all down a few more notches for serious, experienced journalists. Sincerely, Not a Ninja at all ….aka Pam McLoughlin
