ELIAS WINS AGAIN FOR COMMENTARY
LOS ANGELES
– For the 12th time in the last 14 years, California Focus columnist Thomas
Elias has won first prize for commentary in the annual competition of the Los
Angeles Press Club.
Winners for
the year 2019 were announced late Saturday via a webcast, rather than at the
club’s usual awards dinner, canceled due to the coronavirus.
Elias won for
his Jan. 7, 2019 column titled “Solid standards needed
for pre-fire power cutoffs.” This was one of a series of columns Elias has
written over the last several years on utility problems and malfeasance.
Said the judges, all members of other
press clubs around the nation, “Elias provides excellent commentary, bringing
important details to the readers.”
The Elias column appears in 92 newspapers
in all parts of California.
