The Western Publishing Association held its banquet on Friday and announced the winners for its annual Maggie Awards, which go to work deemed "The Best in the West." With
all five finalists in the overall Tabloids/Consumer category being Village Voice Media papers, we knew an alt-weekly would win, but which would it be?
OC Weekly ended up taking home the first-place prize in that category, and the
Houston Press finished first for Best Public Service Series or Article/Trade & Consumer for staff writer Chris Vogel's
December 2009 story on toxic polluters and lax enforcement at the Houston Ship Channel.
