The Poynter Institute announces that Anderson Cooper will be honored with the Poynter Medal for Lifetime Achievement in Journalism

Cooper is one of the most influential, trusted and dynamic broadcast journalists working today. He anchors CNN’s “Anderson Cooper 360°,” which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, and hosts a new Sunday show on CNN, “The Whole Story with Anderson Cooper.” Last year, he launched a podcast with CNN about grief, called “All There Is.” Cooper is also a regular correspondent for “60 Minutes” on CBS.
