Adnkronos (Adnkronos) – “The Fenice Prize is a recognition I hold dear, born from an idea I had during a conference: a conversation in the corridors with a researcher sparked a real spark. This made me reflect on the fact that once again, and even today in the age of artificial intelligence, it's essential for journalists to always go and see things in person.
The nuances you pick up on the spot aren't captured in the newsroom. This award is dedicated to all my fellow freelance journalists who face the perils of the profession in a time of crisis in the publishing industry." With these words, journalist Antonio Piemontese accepted the award for the "written" category on stage in Urbino, where the 14th edition of the Cultural Journalism Festival provided the backdrop for the fifth edition of the award established by the National Packaging Consortium to give voice and recognition to new talent in environmental and recycling press.
“Independence and the ability to read between the lines,” he concluded, “are necessary to understand the dynamics of the world, and since so much of the information we read is provided by unstable freelancers, it's important to be able to find it: information is a value that can help us act as a compass in an increasingly complex world.”
