Texas Managing Editors

Texas Managing Editor Awards

Each year, the Texas Managing Editors joins the Headliners Foundation of Texas to recognize outstanding journalism as practiced by the state’s daily newspapers.

Through this partnership, the Texas Managing Editors annual contest is complemented by a group of honors known as the Texas Headliners Excellence in Journalism Awards. Texas Managing Editors also honors newspapers and journalists from around the state with awards in 29 general categories, as well as awards for college and university publications.
