Due to technical difficulties encountered by a few newspapers, Missouri Press has opted to open the Better Newspaper Contest through Sunday, April 13. In conjunction with the BNC, the A-Mark Prize for Investigative Journalism contest entry form is also being re-opened.
All information related to the Better Newspaper Contest is available on the Association’s website, www.mopress.com/better-newspaper/.
Missouri Press staff, including Matthew Barba (mbarba@mopress.com) and Kristie Fortier (kfortier@mopress.com) will be available to answer BNC-related questions through 4 p.m. Wednesday, April 9.
