Here's how you can help: Nominate one or more journalists for the 2010 medal. The criterion is simple: The medal honors a working U.S. journalist whose career has exemplified journalistic courage.
Please send your nominations to ASNE retired member Professor John F. Greenman at jgreenma@uga.edu.
Tell him the journalist's name, where the journalist works, how to contact the journalist, and why you think the journalist is worthy of this honor. A few sentences are all we need for now.
Nomination deadline is December 15.
