Favorite Local News Writer

2018 was a good year for the Leader-Telegram’s Julian Emerson: Not only did his wife, Jodi, get elected to the state Assembly, but early in the year he finally was named Favorite Local News Writer. 2019 is off to a good start, as he again finishes in first place (the pressure is on Assemblywoman Emerson to keep up). Volume One’s own Tom Giffey writes himself into the runner-up position, while L-T scribe Eric Lindquist trades spots this year with Tom and comes in third. — Luc Anthony
