Daily Bruin editors win $275,000

Anthony Pesce, next year's editor in chief of the student newspaper at UCLA, and photo editor/columnist Dharmishta Rood won a Knight News Challenge award to "create online publishing software geared to mobile editing." Other winners announced in Las Vegas include Tim Berners-Lee, who essentially invented the world wide web. What is it, you ask? ""The 2008 Knight News Challenge is year two of a contest awarding as much as $5 million for innovative ideas using digital experiments to transform community news."
