Way to go LA! You will also see that Village Voice Media took several awards.
LA Weekly led the awards among major circulation weekly newspapers again this year, grabbing four first-place honors from the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies at its 14th annual AltWeekly Awards in Tucson.

The four winners were Art Director Darrick Rainey for his haunting design of a cover story about the death of a beautiful young runaway on the gritty streets of Hollywood, editor Laurie Ochoa and the LA Weekly staff for the LA People 2008 issue, food columnist Jonathan Gold for his body of work and freelancer Nancy Rommelmann for her cover story about a massive literary hoax.
