- Judges' Comments
For the judges it came down to comparisons between the entries that edited a selection of strong daily coverage versus special editions of sections that reviewed the disaster in some time frame or form.
The Sunday Star-Ledger’s “Devastated” was simply the most moving package presented. Its edit for a Jan. 9, 2005 special section was filled with striking photos, presented in compelling matchings and reviewed the entire story. You saw the wave/water, you saw the result and you felt the pain.
