1/3 of a National Magazine Award

Published on May 29, 2006

Sharlet: I feel like I am entitled to claim at least 1/3, or maybe 1/18th, of Harper's' National Magazine Award for "general excellence" in the 100,000-250,000 circulation category. The prize is based on a submission of three issues; two of the issues in Harper's winning submission featured cover stories on religion -- Erik Reece's "Jesus Without the Miracles,", on Thomas Jefferson's Bible, and the double feature of last last May's issue, a piece of mine, "Inside America's Most Powerful Megachurch," and a story by Chris Hedges, "Feeling the Hate with the National Religious Broadcasters."
