Postmedia’s journalists were honoured nine times Saturday at the 65th annual Ontario Newspaper Awards, taking home awards for their memorable video and photography, provocative commentary and searing, in-depth reporting. The photo also won the prize for feature photography for newspapers with circulation over 25,000. Other Postmedia journalists recognized Saturday included Rick Gibbons of the Ottawa Sun, honoured for his columns and opinion writing. Scott Dunn of the Owen Sound Sun Times picked up the ONA for spot news writing at a paper with circulation under 25,000. The ONA judges praised the photograph for how it “dramatically underscored” the national tragedy of missing and murdered Indigenous women.
