Baseline Wins Top Biz Journalism Prize

Ziff Davis Media’s Baseline magazine was honored Wednesday with the 2005 Grand Neal at the 51st Jesse H. Neal National Business Journalism Awards presentations at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel in New York City.

The Neals are the “Pulitzer Prizes” for the business press; and the Grand Neal Award is its highest honor, connoting the publication that best exemplifies editorial excellence in the business press.

Baseline won with coverage such as ‘We Did Nothing Wrong,’ a story by Deborah Gage and John McCormick in the March, 2004 issue, describing how badly written software can cause drastic consequences, including several deaths in medical centers in Panama.

Baseline also won top honors for Best Single Article and Best Regularly Featured Department or Column.

Ziff Davis Media congratulates all the writers and editors of Baseline on the award.
