Ethical journalism
award endowed
Ancil Payne, former president
and chief executive of King
Broadcasting Co., has endowed
a new award for professional
and student journalists at the
University.
The $106,000 endowment for
the School of Journalism and
Communication will award
journalists who demonstrate
high ethical standards in their
work.
The journalism school will
oversee the selection of award
recipients.
The Ancil Payne Awards for
