Those of you with a subscription to The Guardian may be interested to hear that the newspaper has been given two Online Journalism Awards across the pond, from the Online News Association - the Gannett Foundation Award for Investigative Journalism and the Watchdog Journalism Award.
The awards are to recognise the extensive and informative coverage of the NSA Leaks earlier this year.
The Guardian’s US editor-in-chief Janine Gibson, said: "We're very proud to accept these awards from the ONA and the Gannett Foundation. It means a great deal to have the endorsement of our peers in the US media and we are thankful for their support. These awards are significant, not just to our team who have worked relentlessly for months on this story, but because they recognise the importance of difficult watchdog journalism in the public interest."
