      • The Mirror Awards are annual journalism awards recognizing the work of writers, reporters, editors and organizations who cover the media industry. The awards were established by the S.I. Newhouse School of Public Communications in 2006.
      Awards categories have varied slightly from year to year. Since 2018, categories included:
      • Best Single Article/Story
      • Best Profile
      • Best Commentary
      • John M. Higgins Award for Best In-Depth/Enterprise Reporting
      Special topic categories reflecting the major news stories of the previous year have also been added each year since 2018.


      John M. Higgins Award


      The John M. Higgins Award for Best In-Depth/Enterprise Reporting was established by the Newhouse School in December 2011 to honor the late Broadcasting & Cable business editor, who died in 2006. The award is supported by a financial gift from Discovery Communications and Time Warner Cable and carries a $5,000 cash prize. Each of the remaining awards carries a $1,000 cash prize.
