Publication name: The Oregonian

Top editors of your business section: Mark Hester, business editor; Ben Santarris, economy editor; Scott Nelson, assistant business editor; Jackie Love, business wire editor

Total staff and number of reporters: 10 reporters, 4 editors, 2 news assistants

Featured columnists: Julie Tripp, weekly Money column

Focus and philosophy, what you do especially well: We gear our coverage to reflect the condition of the Oregon economy. We also pay close attention to business stories that intersect with government or lifestyle. We want to reach all readers, not just those with a specialized interest in business. In terms of industries, our priorities are sports apparel and semiconductors.

Notable awards: General Excellence awards in the SABEW Best in Business contest for 1996, 2001, 2002 and 2003; SABEW Best in Business Awards for Projects (staff) and Spot Enterprise (Jeff Manning) in 2003; Pulitzer Prize for Explanatory Journalism (Richard Read) for 1999; National Headliners Award for Business Writing (Jeff Manning, Gail Hill and Steve Woodward) for 2002; Scripps Howard National Journalism Award for Business/Economics Writing, winner for 1999 and 2000, finalist in 2003; Gerald Loeb Award finalist for four of the past six years.

Article/series of which you're especially proud: Prosperity Lost, a 10-part once-a-month series tracking unemployed workers, 2002; early Enron coverage, including a national scoop on employees' money being frozen in 401(k) accounts while the stock price dropped, 2001; investigative reporting that uncovered wrongdoing at local money manager Capital Consultants, which eventually was closed by the feds in large part because of Jeff Manning and Jim Long's reporting.
