Moni Basu was named the overall 2005 Journalist of the Year, an honor accompanied by a $1000 prize.
Moni Basu was honored for her coverage of the 48th infantry brigade. She trained with the 48th at Fort Irwin in California in April and went to Iraq twice in 2005. Basu has made five trips to Iraq, totaling seven and a half months on the ground since 2002, serving as an embedded reporter on the last three.
Congratulations, Moni! This went down on the 6th. I don't know how I missed it...
