Each year University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill professor Chris Roush's ‘Talking Biz News,’ selects a Business Journalist of the Year.

Each Business Journalist of the Year nominee stands out in the world of business journalism, covering major stories and developments in the business field. Nominations for the Business Journalist of the Year can be submitted now.

The selection of the award recipient is based on a subjective review by Talking Biz News. Nominations are collected either through Twitter submissions or by polling people that work at business news media organizations.

Roush said: “I look for someone who has made an impact in business journalism, whether it is through outstanding reporting or through management of a business news operation in a way that is unique. I think it’s going to be hard to decide this year because there are so many good stories.”

Talking Biz News is a business journalism site founded and managed by Walter E. Hussman Sr. Distinguished Professor Chris Roush.
