After two weeks of semi-suspense, the Missouri School of Journalism has announced the winners of the Pictures of the Year International (POYi) competition.
To the extent that any person or institution might be called the biggest winner of such a sprawling contest, Barbara Davidson and The Los Angeles Times plainly took top honors. Ms. Davidson, a staff photographer at The Times, won the community awareness award, the issue reporting picture story award (newspaper division) and the feature picture story award (newspaper division) for her series documenting the devastating aftermath of gang violence in the lives of those who have been caught in the crossfire.
The newspaper itself won the award for overall excellence in editing, the newspaper editing portfolio award and the award for online publication best use.
