Daily Beast journalists Roger Sollenberger and Michael Daly were among the winners of the prestigious 2023 Deadline Club Awards. Sollenberger took home the award for best Reporting by Independent Digital Media for his investigation into football legend and Senate candidate Herschel Walker, including revelations that he had undisclosed, out-of-wedlock children and had paid for an abortion. Judges described his series as “excellent investigative work that drove the national conversation and had an impact on a highly consequential congressional election.” Daly received the award for best Newspaper or Digital Local News Reporting for his highly detailed, exclusive report on the NYPD’s effort to find out who sold Michael K. Williams the drugs that killed the 54-year-old The Wire star. The awards, which span 36 categories, honor the best of New York City journalism in print, radio, television, and online.
