Dear friends,
Like so many others, I was quite excited the other day to see the
announcement in a Philly paper that read: Daily News columnist Jenice Armstrong, a pop culture critic who pokes holes in - and fun at - national, local and celebrity news, was named Print Journalist of the Year in Philadelphia. Armstrong, who also writes a blog, Hey Jen, will be honored by the Philadelphia Association of Black Journalists at the 4th Annual Awards Banquet and Ceremony on June 13, at CBS 3 Studios on Hamilton Street near 15th."
I have been honored to share her work on this blog a number of times. I know many journalists around the world, both male and female. Many have received the highest of recognition, awards-wise. Some may have not received awards that they deserve. Nevertheless, Jen Armstrong stands with the best of them. Moreover, I believe that we have yet to see her full potential (which is a scary thought, in a good way).
Cheers!!! - to Jen and her family
