The Livingston Awards: Rules

Three $10,000 awards will be presented by The Mollie Parnis Livingston Foundation for the best examples of print, on-line or broadcast journalism in three categories: local, national and international affairs. Entries must be directly related to current events or include new information about old events. Features and commentary are eligible. The Livingston Awards do not include still photography.
Journalists may apply who are 34 years old or younger as of December 31, 2007, and whose work appears in United States-controlled print or broadcast media.
Submissions must consist of materials prepared in the ordinary course of the journalist's professional production. One entry per individual is accepted. Individuals may apply on their own, or be entered by their organization. Multiple by-lines are eligible. Materials prepared by journalists specifically for submission to The Livingston Awards will not qualify and may not be considered. Student media are not eligible.
All entries will be judged on the basis of either a single piece, or in the case of series, a maximum of three related pieces.
