MINI EDITORIAL
Since the Payson Roundup loves to blow its own horn when it wins awards from the Arizona Newspapers Association.
And since it ignores the results of the more difficult and prestigious Arizona Press Club competition, we thought we'd let you know how they did. Or, in this case, didn't.
The Arizona Press Club just announced the results of its latest competition. Over 100 journalists and 27 print newspapers won awards for their work.
The Payson Roundup and its staff won zero (0) awards.

Way to keep it positive Jimmy.
We know you are in it for the community. (NOT)
By the way, I am NOT associated with the Roundup. I am just one of the many other people in this community that you have screwed over without provocation.
He's just reporting a fact. The Roundup's self-aggrandizing was getting very old.
I noticed particularly that in their annual "Best of Payson" voting they did not have a category for "Best Newspaper."
Probably would have been too embarrassing for them to have to announce that their voters preferred the Gazette.
A newspaper is supposed to be fair and honest above all else. If you can't trust your newspaper (and your preacher and your mother) who the heck can you trust. Telling part of the (awards) story is not being fair and honest (nor by the way is praising everything Mayor Kenny Evans says and does). We are simply pointing that out -- because otherwise people don't realize they can't trust their newspaper. Judging from the first comment, it appears that we've touched a nerve here.
"Jimmy"
Anonymous must have hired a writer. I notice his spelling has improved, and his sentences actually have a subject and a predicate.
I'm beginning to wonder, though, if he writes under a different name (Ed Weldge) in letters to the editor of the Roundup.
Talk about pro-vo-ca-tion !
