As I’ve said before in this space, it’s always fun to brag about the accomplishments of our journalism team. It starts to be really fun when the team repeatedly cleans house in prestigious awards.
That happened this week as our Emily Unglesbee was awarded the Excellence in Journalism Award from the Weed Science Society of America. It’s a great achievement for a young reporter to be recognized for contributions in an industry full of veteran journalists.
The extra-cool factor is that Emily’s accomplishment makes the second year in a row, and the second in the history of this award, that a DTN staffer has been so recognized by WSSA. The inaugural recipient of their award, in 2019, was our own DTN Crops Technology Editor Pamela Smith.
It speaks to the depth of the DTN staff, and the way this team pushes each other to provide the content that readers can only get from DTN and Progressive Farmer platforms.
