Winners of the contest, which is sponsored by the California Newspaper Publishers Association, were announced earlier this month. Chico News & Review won the "General Excellence" award for weekly papers. Sacramento News & Review, as detailed here, picked up eight first- or second-place awards, more than any other weekly in the competition. Also snagging awards were Metro Silicon Valley, North Bay Bohemian, Palo Alto Weekly, Pasadena Weekly, San Francisco Bay Guardian and Santa Barbara Independent.
