Howard Berkes, a correspondent for NPR, received an Edward R. Murrow Award from the Radio Television Digital News Association for the 2013 series, “Buried in Grain,” produced in collaboration with the Center for Public Integrity’s Jim Morris. The pair uncovered a pattern of safety violations and lax enforcement that contributed to a high death toll in grain storage facilities, including a 2010 accident in Illinois in which two teenage workers died.
