Mirror Awards
The Mirror Awards are annual journalism awards recognizing the work of writers, reporters, editors and organizations who cover the media industry. The awards were established by the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in 2006.
Awards categories have varied slightly from year to year. Since 2018, categories included:
• Best Single Article/Story
• Best Profile
• Best Commentary
• John M. Higgins Award for Best In-Depth/Enterprise Reporting
Special topic categories reflecting the major news stories of the previous year have also been added each year since 2018.
The John M. Higgins Award for Best In-Depth/Enterprise Reporting was established by the Newhouse School in December 2011 to honor the late Broadcasting & Cable business editor, who died in 2006. The award is supported by a financial gift from Discovery Communications and Time Warner Cable and carries a $5,000 cash prize. Each of the remaining awards carries a $1,000 cash prize.
Nominations for the Mirror Awards are made online each year beginning in December. The competition is open to anyone who conducts reporting, commentary or criticism of the media industries. Eligible work includes print, broadcast and online editorial content focusing on the development or distribution of news and entertainment. Entries are evaluated based on excellence of craft, framing of the issue and appropriateness for the intended audience. Winners are chosen by a group of journalists and journalism educators.
Winners are honored at an awards ceremony in New York City each June. Ceremony emcees have included Meredith Vieira (2007); Andy Borowitz (2008); Newhouse alumna Contessa Brewer '96 (2009); Katie Couric (2010); Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski (2011); Anderson Cooper (2012); David Muir (2013); Gayle King (2014); Savannah Guthrie (2015); Newhouse alumnus Jeff Glor '97 (2016); Jenna Bush Hager (2017); Kimberly Brooks (2018); Alisyn Camerota (2019); Michelle Marsh (2021), and Contessa Brewer (2022).
