Arizona's media community honours those who have made a significant contribution to First Amendment and freedom of information issues in its annual award next month.
The Arizona Freedom of Information Award - co-sponsored by the Arizona Newspapers Association, Society of Professional Journalists and the Arizona Associated Press Media Editors - will be presented at an awards luncheon on September 26, during the ANA's fall convention.
The 76th Annual Meeting and Convention is being held from September 25-26 at the Wild Horse Pass Hotel & Casino in Chandler.
In addition to the FOI Awards, the Phil Alvidrez Award and the Order of the Silver Keys Society awards are to be presented at the luncheon.
