The Chattanooga Times Free Press celebrates Clay’s win:

Bennett’s work is published on the Chattanooga Times editorial page.

The Chattanooga Times Free Press is unique in that the paper has two editorial pages, the liberal Times page and the conservative Free Press page, which honor the legacies of the predecessor papers that merged in 1999 to form the current newspaper.

Over his career, Bennett also has received the Pulitzer Prize, the Robert F. Kennedy Journalism Award and the National Headliner Award, and he has been named Editorial Cartoonist of the Year by Editor & Publisher magazine.
