The NYPD Detectives Endowment Association honored The Post at a Bronx breakfast awards ceremony Wednesday for excellence in Big Apple police reporting.<\/p>\n
\u201cThat\u2019s our paper, right?\u201d DEA President Scott Munro said at the gathering in Throggs Neck. \u201cThat\u2019s the paper that we look at, that\u2019s the paper we get our information out, and we want to honor them today.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey work with us in law enforcement, which is great,\u201d Munro said. \u201cFor the last two years that this board took over, we\u2019ve done a lot of great things out there, getting information out there with them helping us, because it is a story. It is a story about losing detectives, it\u2019s about getting enhancements for people to stay on this job.\u201d<\/p>\n

The union chief heralded The Post for its complete coverage of both crime in the five boroughs as well as the challenged faces by New York\u2019s Finest amid staffing shortages and administrative challenges in recent years \u2014 and the struggles faced by cops amid lax state criminal justice reforms.<\/p>\n
\u201cI know it\u2019s our paper too, because you don\u2019t have to pay for it online,\u201d he added. \u201cCops won\u2019t pay for it. You gotta pay for the Dailly News and all the other pages, of course, the Times.\u201d<\/p>\n
On hand to receive the honors were the members of the police bureau of The Post, along with Editor-in-Chief Keith Poole, who accepted the union\u2019s award and was singled out as the driving force behind the company\u2019s excellence in police and crime reporting in the five boroughs and beyond.<\/p>\n

\u201cThank you, Scott and the DEA for representing the interests of detectives keeping the city safe,\u201d Poole said. \u201cNo only do you and your members have to deal with the insanely criminal, but also an increasing number of loudmouths and lawmakers who are pushing what appear to many to be insane criminal justice policies which only make your work harder and more dangerous.<\/p>\n
\u201cI wanted to receive this award on behalf of the New York Post and particularly the crime team,\u201d he said. \u201cSo, please give them a round of applause. I often joke that they succeed not because of me, but in spite of me. But without their tireless work, the story of your sacrifice, your dedication, the challenges you face and your professionalism will never be topped.\u201d<\/p>\n
The DEA is one of the largest unions representing NYPD officers and brass, with the Police Benevolent Association representing the most members of the department. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The NYPD Detectives Endowment Association honored The Post at a Bronx breakfast awards ceremony Wednesday for excellence in…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":373230,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[38],"tags":[128,303,36166,27758,57,9,24,4330,63,103,129,131,130,58],"class_list":["post-373229","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-the-bronx","tag-bronx","tag-crime","tag-dea","tag-detectives","tag-metro","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-city","tag-new-york-post","tag-nyc","tag-nypd","tag-the-bronx","tag-the-bronx-headlines","tag-the-bronx-news","tag-us-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/373229","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=373229"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/373229\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/373230"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=373229"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=373229"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=373229"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
