The UA School of Journalism and the Arizona Newspapers Foundation present the award every other year to someone who upholds the traditions of a free press and the people’s right to know. The award was also the focus of an editorial in The Explorer, which covers northwest Tucson, in which Kevin R. Kemper was quoted. Read it here.
