: AFL-CIO NOW BLOGILCA Labor Media Contest Open
By James Parks

The annual Labor Media Contest sponsored by the International Labor Communications Association (ILCA) is now open for submissions. If there’s reporting you’re particularly proud of from 2009–whether you uncovered new facts in an investigative piece, or made an awesome campaign video, or painted an especially exquisite portrait of a worker in words or images–submit it to the contest.
A new prize category this year is social media for those who ran campaigns with social networking tools. Other categories include print, web, photo essay, electronic newsletter,
blog and multi-media campaigns.
The deadline for submissions is April 1, 2010. Award recipients will be announced in late July and top entries displayed at ILCA’s 2010 Awards Luncheon in November in Washington, D.C.
Entries must have been published or released in calendar year 2009. The exceptions are website awards which, because of the nature of the medium, will be judged on what is posted this spring.
For entry forms, rules and more information, click here.
