Important note about the 2021 Minnesota Newspaper Association Better Newspaper Contest:

Changes many of our members have experienced over the last few years have necessitated updates to the Minnesota Newspaper Association Better Newspaper Contest. These updates have been discussed at the Member Services Committee level, the Better Newspaper Contest Task Force level and the MNA Board of Directors level. On unanimous recommendation from the task force, the MNA Board of Directors at their June 25 meeting unanimously approved the following update to the MNA BNC:
The contest is divided into two primary categories of newspapers — multi-day publications and non-multi-day publications. Multi-day publications are defined as those producing a print publication more than once each week. Non-multi-day publications are defined as those producing a print publication no more than once per week.

Multi-day publications will compete among themselves according to the following circulation (per statement of ownership) split:
Less than 5,000
5,001 to 10,000
More than 10,000
 
Non-multi-day publications will compete among themselves according to the following circulation (per statement of ownership) split: 
Less than 1,000
1,001 to 1,500
1,501 to 3,000
3,001 to 7,000
More than 7,000
 
The Vance Trophy will be awarded to the top multi-day publication based on total points earned for each winning entry. The Mills Trophy will be awarded to the top non-multi-day publication based on total points earned for each winning entry.
