Wayne Phaneuf, executive editor of The Republican, to be honored with Yankee Quill Award
Wayne E. Phaneuf, executive editor of The Republican and Sunday Republican, will be honored this fall with the Yankee Quill Award, the highest individual honor bestowed on journalists in New England. Phaneuf, whose career spans 49 years with The Republican and its predecessor publications, is among five honorees who will be recognized in October at the fall conference of the New England Newspaper and Press Association. Established in the 1960s and presented by the New England Academy of Journalists, the Yankee Quill “recognizes the lifetime achievement of those who have had a broad influence for good, both inside and outside the newsroom.”
