Honours for the Mail and columnist Littlejohn at prestigious awards ceremony

The Daily Mail was yesterday named Daily Newspaper of the Year at a prestigious awards ceremony which also saw our brilliant columnist Richard Littlejohn honoured for his unrivalled writing.

The Mail, which was also named Newspaper of the Year by The Society of Editors two months ago, received the new honour from the judges of the London Press Club yesterday.

They described the newspaper as ‘impossible to ignore’, paying tribute to its ‘outstanding journalistic aptitude’ and ‘superb professionalism’.

They also singled out the Mail’s now famous ‘Murderers’ front page in 1997.

For his outstanding writing in the Mail, Littlejohn was awarded the Edgar Wallace Trophy, which celebrates ‘writing or reporting of the highest quality’.

The next London Press Club Networking evening will take place at our home, the Adam Street Club, on Wednesday 11th April from 6.30pm.

We are delighted that our special guest will be Daily Mail columnist, author and broadcaster Richard Littlejohn who has agreed to be interviewed and then to answer questions from guests on the night.

This is sure to be a great night whether you are just starting out in the media world and looking to make contacts, or you have an established career and would like to socialise with familiar faces. The London Press Club networking evening is an unmissable event in the media calendar.

As usual, we have limited capacity, so please let Kate know as soon as possible if you’d like to come along. Please email her with your name, any guests’ names and your job title.

Dick sucking, felching and cash is my best guess....
