The right angle
The University's first exclusively online news source, theangle.com, received a nomination for an EPpy award in the Best College Newspaper Online Service category.
The EPpy Awards are sponsored by Editor & Publisher Company's new media division, and acknowledge the achievements of Internet news sources.
Launched in December of 1998, theangle.com includes news and magazine features in addition to in-depth articles and columns. They also produce interactive polls and animated graphics.
"Theangle.com is unique because it is one of the only, if not the only, college Web site created exclusively for the Internet," theangle.com Executive Editor Anna Robertson said. "We have a unique opportunity to take advantage of the interactive nature of the Web through interactive discussions, photo galleries, quizzes and in-depth coverage of important issues."
Until September, theangle.com appeared once a month. However, producers of the site now post a new edition every other Wednesday.
Ten editors from theangle.com will be going to New Orleans to see if they win the award over Brigham Young's NewsNet or the University of New Mexico's Lobo Link. The award will be presented Feb. 11 at the Hyatt Regency in New Orleans.
