WANTED: The best newsletter journalism from 2014

If you’re a journalist who has done specialized coverage in newsletters about the law, environmental regulations, healthcare or other areas of special interest, the National Press Club wants to see your work.

The Newsletter Journalism Award offers a $750 prize and acknowledges excellence in specialized publications.

Past winners have told valuable stories about the Army’s plan to eliminate its Kiowas helicopter and instead use Apache helicopters that would be taken from the National Guard; deaths connected to a contagious staph infection; detailed the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s plan to weaken drinking water cleanup standards in the event of a “dirty bomb” attack; and detailed an entire year of Supreme Court decisions, analyzing both high-profile and obscure, complex cases.

To apply, please submit one article or a series of no more than 5 articles on a consistent topic.

The deadline to submit entries is April 1, and the contest is open to Press Club members and non-members. Offering entries is free for NPC members, and costs $50 for non-members. The winner will be honored at a National Press Club dinner this summer.

Entries may be submitted online or by the more traditional use of mail. For more information, click here.
