Maria Hinojosa Accepts W.M. Kiplinger Distinguished Contributions to Journalism Award

Maria Hinojosa, founder and president of Futuro Media Group, accepted the 2024 W.M. Kiplinger Distinguished Contributions to Journalism Award and the 2025 NPF Awards Dinner on Feb. 20, 2025. Hinojosa's remarks begin at 4:00. “When Maria Hinojosa began her career in broadcast journalism almost 40 years ago, a fast-growing segment of the American population—Hispanics, soon to become the nation’s largest minority — were almost invisible in national news coverage and in mainstream newsrooms,” said Knight Kiplinger, on behalf of the award judges. “Hinojosa was instrumental in changing that, with her pioneering work in broadcast reporting, commentary, media entrepreneurship, print memoirs and college teaching. At NPR, CNN, PBS, CBS Sunday Morning and MSNBC, Maria became an energetic, creative and wise illuminator of the daily experiences, challenges and aspirations of Latino Americans and many other groups of Americans. All of this makes Maria Hinojosa an eminently worthy honoree for her lifetime contributions to American journalism.” “Latino USA” is the longest-running Latino news public radio program, and Hinojosa was the first Latina to anchor a PBS Frontline report in 2011. The Kiplinger Award was created in 1983 to “honor persons who have, through their vision and leadership, strengthened American journalism and furthered the efforts to establish the highest quality in American journalism.” Past winners of the W.M. Kiplinger Distinguished Contributions to Journalism Award include Dorothy Butler Gilliam, Scott Simon, Paul Steiger, Dick Tofel, Diane Rehm, Clarence Page and Katherine Graham.
