An obligatory moment of self-promotion
Creative Loafing recently took home two North Carolina Press Association awards. They were handed out Feb. 28 in Chapel Hill. We're shy, though, so we didn't get around to telling you until now.
Columnist John Grooms won first place among weeklies with circulation greater than 10,000 in the lighter columns category. His win was based on these sarcasm-laden selections: "Mommy, can I stone the queer now?" "Overkill? What overkill?" and "Do it yourself campaign ads."
Staff writer Karen Shugart won first place in news features for her story "Casualties of War," which looked at Summer Lipford's quest to find out why her son, 20 year-old Pfc. Steven Sirko, died in Iraq in April 2005.
