Team awards don’t seem to exist for the advertising industry even tho its a team effort to do the work to win them.
The Clio Awards do (source: I won one as part of the Media Lab team at Bleacher Report). They credit the team but specifically name the individual members as well. The Clios are pretty big as industry awards go.

Peggy worked on Glo-Coat, but only Don won the Clio.

Unfortunately it's accepted in the industry not to get bilines while you're an internet or a new guy, so I'm sure interns don't have any expectations because of this culture.
> an internet I realise it's probably auto correct, yet that's still so out of http://n-gate.com :)

#104Journalism - real journalism, not blogging - matters. I've been thinking of buying a newspaper subscription again because I feel that even though newspapers typically lag 24 hours or so behind what you can read online someone needs to keep these people employed so they can do there very necessary jobs. I don't think it is possible to have anything resembling a democracy in the modern age without a free press.
I do this!

That’s a shame spreading the credit helps build loyalty which keeps those award winning teams in place.
To play devil's advocate, an intern with a Pulitzer (or similarly prestigious award) on their resume is going to have a lot of job opportunities.

Yep! I'm the same age as her, and this is how we all speak to each other immediately upon earning/winning/receiving something incredible. It's from a place of love, but only works with friends and close acquaintances.
Sorry to hear that. Must be a cultural gap, but I can't find any justification to swear happily in random conversation - friend or not. Not to mention the one that conveys congratulations. If being close with someone is the explanation then, well, I really don't know what to say. There are so many words that could be used instead...
Swear words don't have to be negative. Language changes with each generation, words find new uses and connotations and intensities. I for one enjoy my generation's creative takes on conventional swear words!
