IBEW 1245 Wins Top Labor Journalism Awards

October 13, 2014

IBEW 1245 won four top awards in the 2014 labor journalism competition sponsored by the International Labor Communications Association, including the organization’s coveted  Steinbock Award — the highest single award for journalistic excellence — for the story “Brother’s Keeper,” written by Communications Director Eric Wolfe.

“Brothers Keeper,” which appeared in the third quarter 2013 issue of the Utility Reporter, looks at the union’s attempt to reduce job site injuries and fatalities through peer-to-peer engagement, a program led by Business Representative Rich Lane.

Other first-place awards were: 

  • Best newspaper design, for the Utility Reporter
  • Best informational graphic, for the comic-poster “Weingarten Rights”
  • Best Labor history story, for “Brotherhood and Betrayal: The 1913 IBEW Strike at PG&E”

IBEW 1245 won second place in the Best Internet Content category for its website, www.IBEW1245.com.

The Utility Reporter won a third place award in General Excellence. The Utility Reporter also won a Saul Miller award, third place in the Political Action category, for “Fresno Measure G Defeated.”

Business Manager Tom Dalzell is Executive Editor of the Utility Reporter. Communications Director Eric Wolfe is Managing Editor.
