Minnesota Public Radio News operates out of our headquarters at the Kling Public Media Center in St. Paul, MN and has long been recognized as one of the foremost journalistic organizations in the Upper Midwest, reaching news consumers across all platforms. We are fortunate to have many talented journalists working at MPR.

Recently MPR News’ Mukhtar Ibrahim has been honored twice for his extraordinary work in the field of journalism.

The Milwaukee Press Club honored Ibrahim as a 2017 Excellence in Journalism Awardee for best Multi-Story Coverage of a Single Feature Topic or Event for the series “Documenting Hate” focused on the recent increase in hate crimes across Wisconsin, and the rise of hate groups that target ethnic and religious minorities. The investigative team named by the Milwaukee Press Club included Ibrahim, Alexandra Hall, Riley Vetterkind and Coburn Dukehart.

Ibrahim has also been named a 2018 Above the Fold Award recipient by the Hubbard School of Journalism and Mass Communications. This award honors alumni under the age of 40 who have made exceptional contributions to their fields.
