A Bennett recognition award was presented to Barbara Walters, one of the media world’s most preeminent on-air interviewers and talk show hosts, on May 12, 2008, from the City University of New York (CUNY) Graduate School of Journalism. CUNY presented Walters with the Bennett recognition award “Eternal Spirit” as a special Lifetime Achievement Award in honor of her significant accomplishments in journalism. The recognition award was presented during CUNY’s second annual Awards for Excellence in Journalism awards dinner, held May 12, 2009 at the Times Center in New York City. The unique award was presented to Walters by New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg. Event sponsors included Bloomberg L.P., Dow Jones & Co., The Hearst Corporation, The McGraw-Hill Companies, News Corporation, The New York Observer, The New York Times, and Time, Inc. This is the second Bennett recognition award used for CUNY J-School’s Lifetime Achievement Award – the first was presented to Tom Brokaw in May 2008. |
