About the Award: The Reed Irvine Accuracy in Media Award was established in 2005 to honor those who have made outstanding contributions to the practice of journalism in the tradition of Reed Irvine – America’s first media watchdog – by independently covering and reporting on news that was misreported or ignored by the mainstream press.
