Public Notice Story ( Daily Group 2,Daily Group 3)Back
Place Name: First Place Contestant Name: Richmond Times-Dispatch Entry Title: New Richmond police chief's quick hire broke with Stoney administration practice Entry Credit: Mark Robinson Judge Comment: While the story makes the mayor answer why he tapped a new police chief before a public notice appeared, the author did an excellent job of presenting this mini controversy in an objective way. Despite the emotions connected to criminal justice equality, the story does not lean one way or another at all.
