Union City Managing Editor Chris Garlock was all smiles on December 7 when he collected this year’s batch of awards in the 2018 International Labor Communications Association (ILCA) Labor Media Contest. The Metro Washington Council’s Union City newsletter once again took first place – the eighth time it’s been recognized – while the dclabor.org website won two awards. Union City Radio took top honors in two categories, and the Labor History Today podcast – which just completed its first year – won second place in the Best Audio/Podcast/Radio Broadcast category. UFCW Local 400 was the other local award-winner, with eight awards.
