This article focuses on the coverage of first annual Freedoms Foundation awards by newspapers, held in the U.S. in 1949. Both "The New York Times," and "Herald Tribune," explained that Freedoms Foundation is a recently established non-political, non-sectarian, non-profit group. Its funds are contributed in equal proportions by philanthropic foundations, American business concerns and private subscribers. "Herald Tribune," in its longer account, gave much greater coverage to the awards themselves than did "The New York Times." Former listed the three top winners in each-of twelve main categories and the first ten winners of "unclassified" awards. But only "The New York Times," disclosed winners farther down the ladder.
