The LA Times will also be honored for its investigation into corruption in the city of Bell, “empowering the mostly Latino community to take back their city.”

On top of the special honorees, the CCNMA will also hand out its annual Ruben Salazar Journalism Awards. LA Times staff writer Louis Sahagun is the winner in the newspaper category for his story on birth defects near a toxic waste facility in the primarily Latino farming town of Kettleman City.
