del.icio.usBrooklyn’s Real Newspaper was recognized Friday for editorial excellence, winning two first-place awards in the Suburban Newspaper Association’s annual competition.
The Brooklyn Paper won 1st Place for Best Editorial Writing, for editorials titled “No votes for a thief” (about Assemblyman Roger Green) and “It’s official: It’s no park” (about the commercial and housing development commonly referred to as Brooklyn Bridge Park).
The Brooklyn Paper also won 1st Place for Best Arts & Entertainment Criticism/Commentary for “Poetic Legacy,” an article by GO Brooklyn Editor Lisa J. Curtis about legendary artist Aminah Lynn Robinson on the eve of a big retrospective of her work at the Brooklyn Museum.
The Suburban Newspaper Association represents more than 2,000 daily and weekly newspapers that are published in both urban and suburban markets. The contest, which attracted 3,619 entries in 37 categories, was judged by the American Press Institute.
