UPDATED: 2007 EPpy Winners -- With Links

By: E&P Staff E&P has announced the winners of the 2007 EPpy Awards for interactive media, presented Thursday at the E&P/Mediaweek Interactive Media Conference & Trade Show in Miami. Awards were given in 32 different categories for excellence in online media, both for design and for content.

Due to a transmission error, a list containing some incorrect winners was posted earlier (our apologies for any confusion).

In the category of Best Newspaper-Affiliated Web Site with more than one million unique monthly visitors, NYTimes.com took the top prize. The Associated Press took honors for Best News Web Site (asap) for fewer than one million unique visitors per month, and The Washington Post won the award for Best Design of a Media-Affiliated Web Site (with more than one million unique monthly visitors).

This year also saw the bestowing of the inaugural Knight News Innovation Award, which was given to the Center for Innovation in Journalism at American Public Media.

Since 1996, the EPpy Awards have honored the best new media services from the newspaper industry. Each year, an independent panel of industry experts selects the top examples of interactive services in a variety of categories. The awards are co-sponsored by E&P and Mediaweek magazines.
