Reporting ‘with neither fear nor favor’ earns ethics award for MPR, NPR reporters; Minneapolis Public Radio (MPR), July 30, 2018

Bob Collins, Minneapolis Public Radio (MPR); Reporting ‘with neither fear nor favor’ earns ethics award for MPR, NPR reporters

"To uphold the SPJ Code of Ethics, reporting on your own company is to tread in uncertain territory. You don’t produce a story like this, for example, without taking a fair amount of personal and professional risk.

That’s also true in the case of Folkenflik and Kelly, who outed their bosses’ apparent ability to look the other way with rumors of news boss Michael Oreskes’ behavior toward female subordinates. 

Kelly’s interview of NPR CEO Jarl Mohn remains a textbook example of how to ask tough questions."
