Smith, who won the Joseph Quinn Lifetime Achievement Award, called the honor “the most important and rewarding honor of my professional career” and called on journalists “to continue to stand up for the truth” and against subjective interpretations of truth in these uncertain times. moments “when facts, truth and journalism seem to matter less”.
“You’re not supposed to be loved,” Smith added, before the ballroom lights suddenly went out during his speech. “The lights are off but not the microphone,” he said, laughing in the room.
