2009.The CBC, Radio-Canada and The Canadian Press won the 2008
Michener Award for a joint project that analyzed and reported on the
use of Taser stun guns.
The judging for the Michener Award goes beyond journalistic merit to
consider what the project has accomplished, the absence of
self-serving journalistic interest, and the resources avilable to
entrants so that larger and smaller competitors are on a more equal
basis.
