InsideClimate News Wins Scripps Howard Award for Exxon Exposé

An investigative team at InsideClimate News won a major journalism award for their series, "Exxon: The Road Not Taken," today (March 8, 2016). The Scripps Howard Awards are a prestigious national competition juried by news professionals. Neela Banerjee, John H. Cushman Jr., SEJ member Lisa Song, and David Hasemyer shared the award for the series, which documented that Exxon's own research confirmed the role of fossil fuels in causing global warming decades ago — although the company's top execs went on to fund denial of climate science and lead efforts to block solutions.
