E&P announced the winners of the 28th annual EPPY Awards on Nov. 4 at EditorandPublisher.com.
This year’s EPPY Awards received more than 400 entries. Winners were selected from an international list of nominations to honor the best in digital media across more than 40 diverse categories. Entries came from media companies large and small worldwide, including local news publishing, broadcast networks, cable news and sports networks, pure-play international websites and niche content publishers. There were additional categories celebrating excellence in college and university journalism. The categories were separated into websites with more than 1 million monthly unique visitors and those that receive fewer than 1 million. Winners must receive a score in the top one-third of the average score across all categories within their division. As a result, there may be no winner in categories not reaching this threshold.
A big thank you goes out to our EPPY judges this year. Our panel of 33 judges comprises media leaders in website design, marketing and advertising, editorial, technology, education, media management and consulting.
