HONORED WORK: “Borderland”
Technically flawless, “Borderland” is a simple idea but brilliant in its approach and execution. This thorough report documents the world that exists on the 2,248-mile U.S.-Mexico border – and tells the stories of those who live in a world of human smuggling, drugs and poverty – through the combined efforts of NPR radio reporters, web developers, data experts, producers and photographers.
