The Martha Gellhorn prize is awarded to a journalist whose work has penetrated the established version of events and told an unpalatable truth, validated by powerful facts, that exposes establishment propaganda, or ‘official drivel’, as Martha Gellhorn called it.
The award is made by the trustees of the Martha Gellhorn Prize: Cynthia Kee, James Fox, Jeremy Harding, John Hatt, Sandy Matthews and John Pilger.

The 2007 award was won by Dahr Jamail (unembedded, Inter Press Service, IPS) and Mohammed Omer (unembedded).
