Columbia announces annual duPont broadcast prizes
NEW YORK — A newspaper that put together a multimedia project on gambling addiction is among the winners of the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Awards for broadcast journalism, the first time a multimedia project from a print-based organization has won one of the prestigious awards.
"Bottoming Out: Gambling Addiction in Las Vegas" from the Las Vegas Sun was "a compelling and informative look at the human toll of compulsive gambling as well as the brain behavior and science of the gambling industry," jurors said.
The project included a video diary, a live internet chat about gambling addiction, and an interactive component about slot machines along with text stories.
The prize winning series can be seen here:
