Press Club honors McGuire with First Amendment award
This year’s Alaska Press Club Howard Rock/Tom Snapp First Amendment Award goes to a Nome journalist who works tirelessly to advocate on behalf of her community’s right to know. As a fearless, unapologetic journalist, Nancy McGuire (editor and owner of the Nome Nugget) has been unafraid to use the press freedoms afforded by the First Amendment to tackle controversial issues in a small frontier town in remote Alaska.
