The Peter F. Collier Award for Ethics in Journalism celebrates acts of journalism by student and professional journalists that meet the highest ethical standards in the face of pressure or incentives to do otherwise. The award is administered by the Ethics & Journalism Initiative at the Arthur L. Carter Journalism Institute at New York University. This is the award’s inaugural year, and it will be granted annually.
“The Collier Award is grounded in the belief that a greater focus on ethics—on rigorous, factual reporting, transparency, humility, and fairness—can help journalists become more effective and more trustworthy, and therefore more valuable to their audiences and to the broader community,” said Stephen J. Adler, Ethics & Journalism Initiative director.
Nathan S. Collier, founder and chairman of the Collier Companies, is sponsoring the award in honor of his great grand uncle, Peter F. Collier, who emigrated from Ireland in 1866, became a book publisher, and founded the renowned magazine, Collier’s Weekly, in 1888.
