Los Cerritos Community Newspaper Named Finalist in Southern California Newspaper Award For Investigative Series on Assessor, Noguez

Los Cerritos Community Newspaper, Publisher Brian Hews and Investigative Reporter Randy Economy have been nominated in the category of “Best Investigative Series” by the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club on Thursday for the 2013 Southern California Journalism Awards. Hews and Economy were recognized by the organization for their trailblazing series “Corruption at The Los Angeles County Assessor’s Office.”

The series by LCCN resulted in the arrest of current Los Angeles County Assessor John Noguez and three other individuals in what former Los Angeles County Assessor Steve Cooley called “the biggest political corruption case in the last 40 years.”

Competing along with Hews and Economy is Richard Clough of the Los Angeles Business Journal, for the “Too Good To Be True,”;  Michael Collins, Ventura County Reporter Newspaper, for “A Radioactive Nightmare.” Joe Piasecki, Glendale News-Press for  “Assembly Budgets Shape Discipline, Political Goal,” and Joe Piasecki for La Canada Valley Sun, “Using Money To Shape Policy.”

The 55th SoCal Journalism Awards and LA Press Club’s Centennial Celebration will be held on Sunday, June 23rd 2013 at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel Downtown Los Angeles.
