Journalists from The New York Times and The Sun in Baltimore picked up their trophies and certificates for the inaugural Barlett & Steele Awards for Investigative Business Journalism at a dinner held Tuesday, Oct. 30, at the Princeton in New York City.

“A Toxic Pipeline” by Walt Bogdanich and Jake Hooker of The Times received the $5,000 first-place award and gold medallion trophy. Their stories documented China’s role in supplying a counterfeit drug ingredient that killed at least 100 people in Panama and is suspected of killing thousands of others around the world.

“On Shaky Ground,” part 1part 2part 3, by Fred Schulte and June Arney of The Sun received the second-place $2,000 award and silver medallion trophy. Their series tracked how Baltimore’s arcane system of property fees preyed on the poor and elderly.

The award-winning investigative team of Don Barlett and Jim Steele presented the awards. Andrew Leckey, director of the Donald W. Reynolds National Center for Business Journalism which ran and funded the awards, also took part in the event.
