AGU Journalism Awards won by Margaret Munro and Dr. Richard Smith

Date:4/3/2008

published with lead time of more than one week. Regarding the film Crude, the Sullivan Award selection committee said it

represents magnificent film making, compellingly led and narrated by a scientist. Interviews with other scientists and thinkers are crisp and thoughtful; computer animations are riveting. Linking solid science with societal issues, the film demonstrates how journalism can elevate public scientific literacy and awareness, as well as lead public opinion on critical scientific, environmental, and societal issues.

The 90-minute documentary may be viewed at http://www.abc.net.au/science/crude/. The first broadcast of the film took place on 24 May 2007 on the Australian Broadcasting Corporations ABC-TV.

The AGU journalism awards will be presented during Honors Evening at the Joint Assembly of AGU and 13 U.S. and Latin American scientific societies in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, 27-30 May, http://www.agu.org/meetings/ja08/.

AGUs Sullivan and Perlman Awards are named for Walter Sullivan, late science editor of The New York Times, and David Perlman, science editor of the San Francisco Chronicle, respectively. Each award consists of a plaque and a $2,000 stipend.
