John Silvester and Andrew Rule
The Age
Underbelly authors John Silvester and Andrew Rule have won the Best Columnist/Blogger Quill for their 'Naked City' column, which has been published in The Age every Saturday since last year. Notable column entries in 2010 included a profile of former Chief Commissioner of Victoria Police Mick Miller, the story of a doctor whose world was shattered after she was hit by a car while cycling and a piece on the darker side of the Waterhouse family.
Judges Citation
With historical perspective and fearless commentary, the Naked City series has produced some outstanding exposes. One resulted in charges being upgraded against a sexual predator who shattered a doctor’s life. Another piece scathingly set the record straight about the controversial Waterhouse racing identities.
