Record-Chronicle wins 15 state journalism awards

[meangreen11]

Denton Record-Chronicle journalists won a combined 15 awards for their work during 2020 in honors announced Tuesday afternoon by the Texas Associated Press Managing Editors.

Reporters, editors and photographers were judged against their peers at all newspapers in the state with a circulation under 10,000.

Veteran sports reporter Brett Vito won first place in Deadline Writing for his coverage of the resignation of former University of North Texas assistant football coach Tate Wallis.

He also earned first place in Feature Series for his coverage of how UNT’s athletics program had been navigating the pandemic, and fellow reporter Marshall Reid won third in the same category for his series that profiled area students and their own struggles amid the pandemic.

Never understood why so many of us are against Bert's coverage. Guy has always been consistent and prompt, I enjoy the reads, and the Mean Green coverage is literally the only reason to have a DRC subscription for me

I wonder how many newspapers there are in Texas with a circulation under 10,000 ?

In a town the size of Denton, that is sad.  I know this is a result of younger generations preferring to read online, but I don't know if the circulation has ever been strong.  Doesn't appear to be much effort to grow.

Many

There are total 698 Newspapers available in Texas state.

(shows DRC @ 12K paid curculation)

Meanwhile, Abilene has 20K fewer people than Denton but the Abilene Reporter-News has 20K more in paid circulation than the DRC.

Get out of her with your fancy wheels and modern tools. We only worship monoliths and use bone weapons in new denton. Trying to be all fancy and new age...
