Middletown Press nominated for awards
Next week, the staff of The Middletown Press will attend the Society of Professional Journalists annual awards dinner.
Staff members are finalists in 17 different categories, ranging from photography to page design.
For our staff editorial "First selectman seeks demise of newspaper," we have been nominated in the single editorial category. The Press also submitted a series of articles under the name "Press under investigation," including the above mentioned editorial, for the First Amendment Award, which we are also a finalist for.
Middletown reporter Hannah Vahl, court reporter Walt Gogolya, copy editor Leslie (Parsons) Poster and former reporter Jennifer Sprague are also finalists for their coverage of the Antonio Inglis murder trial.
Vahl was also nominated for her feature of a 91-year-old auxiliary trooper, which also got picked up by the Associated Press.
Sports Editor Jeremie Smith is a finalist for both sports columns and page designs, and reporter Jeff Mill is a finalist in the feature writing category for his piece about a female cop in Cromwell.
Wish us luck! I'll report back after May 27 to let you know what awards we actually won!

I forgot to ask, will the Cromwell PD receive a co-award for Jeff Mill's article since it was most likely written by the Cromwell Police Department.
Where did my post go? Where is my free speech????? Was Jeffey poo mad?? Too funny. I have witnessed, in person, Jeff commiserating with friends and confidants at local town meetings. The guy is about as straight as a winding river when it comes to reporting the news. If he ever asks to speak to you, use caution, extreme caution.
