Still around? edit

Have these awards been given after 2008? From the record of U. Missouri press releases, that seems to be their last year. If that's right, the page should indicate it. Sullidav (talk) 03:22, 1 December 2020 (UTC)Reply


On December 3, 2020 I got this email response from the U. 0f Missouri journalism school, when I asked them the above question. THis email is not a Wikipedia reliable source, but the webpage should say that they were no longer given out after, apparently, 2008.

Thank you for contacting the Missouri School of Journalism.

Yes, you are correct in your assumption that the Missouri Lifestyle Journalism Awards are no longer being given out. Please let me know if I can answer any further questions you may have about the J-School.

Best wishes, WM

@Sullidav, thanks! The problem is, as always, that we need a reliable source saying this. I completely believe this is true, but we need to find a source that we can cite. —valereee (talk) 22:10, 2 May 2021 (UTC)Reply
@User:Valereee, thanks. See how I tried to do it. I think that citing the 2005-08 press releases announcing winners is some evidence, though circumstantial and non-conclusive, that their absence for subsequent years is significant, and the late awards for 2008 again suggests that something was going on, though not being proof of anything.
