EW HONORED AT ONPA
Eugene Weekly took six out of 24 journal-
ism excellence awards given to associate
members at the annual Oregon Newspaper
Publishers Association banquet in Agate
Beach July 18.
A first place in graphics went to James
Bateman and an honorable mention in graph-
ics went to Kevin Dougherty. In the writing
category, Alan Pittman took a third place and
Bobbie Willis an honorable mention. In two
general awards, EW took second in the target
audience category and third in overall de-
sign. EW’s main competitor in the awards
was the Portland Tribune, which also gar-
nered six awards, including three first places.
In the large dailies competition, The
Register-Guard earned 21 awards but lost out
to the larger Oregonian in nearly every cate-
gory, including graphics, design, headlines,
business, education, sports, features, enter-
prise reporting, editorials and lifestyle. The
exceptions included a top writing award by R-
G reporter Jeff Wright, and a sports photo first
place by Chris Pietsch. The R-G took third
place in general excellence, behind The
Oregonian and Salem’s Statesman Journal.
Former R-G Publisher Ted Baker (1982-
1987) was inducted into the ONPA Hall of
Fame for his “sustained and profound contri-
butions to the newspaper industry through
management skills.” — TJT
