AAEC: Challenge Fund, Berryman

* Editor & Publisher reports that the Association of American Editorial Cartoonists was among those groups afforded challenge grants from The Challenge Fund For Journalism, which I think means they have a year to raise money and match the amount announced for them in order to receive the funding. The Challenge Fund also announced the spread of an amount of not-matching funds to various journalistic organizations. I have no idea if the AAEC has the ability to raise money in this way, or what they would do with the money they raised, but the thought of buttressing the various established organizations out there in these tough times for newspapers seems interesting to me.

* Speaking of cash prizes, AAEC's site reminds that the deadline for the National Press Foundation's Berryman Award for Editorial Cartoons is October 6. Hard to believe that award is almost 20 years old.
