City Pages is recognizing what you’ve known for some time. In its annual best of the Twin Cities issue, City Pages named The UpTake as the Best Citizen Based Media Outlet.

Read more about it here.

We’re flattered and want to share the credit.
Several names get mentioned in the article, but The UpTake is much more than the few people mentioned. We’re a growing community of citizen journalists and supporters of citizen journalism. Everyone who has contributed video, text, time, comments or just moral support helped us win this. So this is an award, not for an organization as much as it is for a community and a movement.

Thank you City Pages… and Minnesota Monitor which wrote:

“Best citizen-based media outlet: Duh. The UpTake.”

As one of the relatively new kids on the block it’s nice to know you really like us.
