The Daily Herald garners 6 awards from regional journalism competition

EVERETT — The Daily Herald received six awards — two first-place and four second-place honors — in the 2024 Northwest Excellence in Journalism Awards from the Region 10 Society of Professional Journalists.

The awards recognize the best in journalism from media outlets across Alaska, Idaho, Montana, Oregon and Washington. The Herald competed in the Large Newsroom division.

The “After the Slide” series, published in March 2024, took first place in the Environment and Natural Disaster Reporting category.

The series, which marked the 10th anniversary of the Oso slide, included an oral history from families, survivors and first responders, a story on what the new memorial means to survivors and a third story on how lessons from the disaster affect emergency response today.
