WHCA 2024 Award Winners

THE AWARD FOR EXCELLENCE IN PRESIDENTIAL NEWS COVERAGE BY VISUAL JOURNALISTS

The Award recognizes a video or photojournalist for uniquely covering the presidency from a journalistic standpoint, either at the White House or in the field. This could be breaking news, a scheduled event or feature coverage. It includes a prize of $2,500.

The Award goes to:
Doug Mills, The New York Times

From the Judges:

Judges praised the photo for showcasing three key elements: action, composition and feeling. They each also viewed the picture differently, agreeing that whether the picture is foreboding or optimistic, the interpretation is left to the viewer. They said that of the impressive batch of visual entries, this photograph best captured the newsmaking year.



The Feb. 22, 2023, photo shows President Biden boarding Air Force One as he leaves Warsaw, Poland. Biden is flying back to Washington, D.C., after meetings and speeches about the war in Ukraine.

It sits next to two other properties he bought last year: One for $79m and another for $68m.

Don't tell me the super-rich can't afford a wealth tax.
