2017 ICFJ Awards Dinner

2017 Awards Dinner: Nearly 600 media leaders and luminaries gathered Nov. 9 at the International Center for Journalists’ annual Awards Dinner. We paid tribute to journalists who fearlessly shed light on the truth. CNN’s Wolf Blitzer was our outstanding master of ceremonies. 

The awards ceremony demonstrated how ICFJ is empowering truth tellers in these challenging times. Thanks to everyone for supporting our work. We need your backing more than ever.
