- Judges' Comments
For the judges it came down to comparisons between the entries that edited a selection of strong daily coverage versus special editions of sections that reviewed the disaster in some time frame or form.
The San Jose Mercury News’ edit for a Sept. 4, 2005 special section on “Hurricane Katrina: The week in pictures” was thoughtfully edited and shown in a minimalist presentation that highlighted the images.
