MILWAUKEE (WI)
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
The national Religion Newswriters Association has honored the Journal Sentinel’s coverage of the release of archdiocesan sex abuse documents, the controversy over a Wauwatosa priest and the continuing bankruptcy proceedings.
The 2014 Gerald A. Renner Enterprise Religion Report of the Year honors a series or package of stories that shows enterprise and unusual effort, and uses multimedia. The award is named after an award-winning religion journalist and author.
The Journal Sentinel won for a collection of 10 pieces, spearheaded by Annysa Johnson, who has been covering religion for five years. Karen Herzog, Gina Barton, Ellen Gabler, Kevin Crowe, Allan Vestal and Dave Umhoefer of the Journal Sentinel all shared in the award.
The announcement was made at the association’s national convention this month in Atlanta.
