The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition The Globe is a finalist in six categories at the EPPY awards honouring the best in journalism websites. The unbylined item says the winners will be announced Thursday. The Globe's nominations are for best newspaper-affiliated site, best news site and best home page. The Globe is also a finalist for best news/event feature, the North; best investigative/enterprise feature, Last Call, on the Lac-Megantic disaster; and best business blog, Business Briefing. The EPPY Awards, presented by the U.S.-based journal Editor and Publisher, recognize the best media-affiliated websites across 30 categories. The EPPYs focus on the journalistic merit of the content, unlike other awards that are more about technology and presentation. The Globe's 2014 finalist nominations compete against the biggest media sites around the world. More than 400 entries were reviewed before the finalist list was chosen. Finalists must receive an average score in the top one-third of judges' reviews within their division. As a result, some categories may have no winner. The Globe won an EPPY last year for the best Home Page among the world's major media sites.
