MoJo Wins National Magazine Award
Think Academy Awards, red carpet, black tie. In the magazine world, top honors come not as Oscars, but as Ellies, and they're awarded by the American Society of Magazine Editors. At tonight's National Magazine Awards in New York Mother Jones won the 2007 award for General Excellence (100,000 to 250,000 circulation). (Check out the year's issues here.)
We beat out the respectable company of Foreign Policy, Paste, Radar, and Philadelphia. More on the winners and nominees (Mother Jones was also nominated for Lana Slezic's photo essay on the women of Afghanistan) here.
And thanks to all our readers for your support. Expect more excellence to come!

Nice job! Congratulations! That photo essay was very powerful.
Silly question... but is the sculpture supposed to be an elephant?

Yes! It's an Ellie...an Elliephant.

Congratulations to all at MoJo.
Your coverage of issues of import has continued for decades. You deserve this award and a pile more of them.
Among the excellent pieces you've done, the Iraq War time line stands out as a piece I find especially useful. I had plans to do that project myself, but your team did it much better than I could have, and I refer people to it frequently. Thanks for that and everything else you do to help our country become a more informed and hopefully better place.

Congratulations to all. You deserve it. You have excellent articles, investigative stories, blogs & excellent reporters. The Iraq War Timeline was a creative way to highlight issues buried in very complex material.
