Over 1,500 entries received for BNC-Advertising
Member newspapers submitted 1,506 entries for the 2006 Better Newspaper Contest — Advertising Division, which deadlined Tuesday. A couple of newspapers came in just under the wire at the 5 p.m. cutoff, bringing the total number of participating newspapers to 37 (19 dailies, 31 weeklies/non-dailies).
Judging for the contest will be conducted this month by members of the Oregon Newspaper Publishers Association.
Awards will be handed out during MPA’s Mid-Winter Conference, scheduled for Jan. 25-27, 2007, at the Jackson Hilton Hotel.
