The Pulitzer Prize is supposed to be an award for exemplary journalism. Recently, it has far more often served as a toxic feedback loop for legacy media outlets.
Last week, the Pulitzer board declined to revoke the 2018 award jointly won by the New York Times and the Washington Post over the papers’ false reporting on Russian collusion and Donald Trump’s 2016 presidential campaign. The board claimed that two “independent reviews” of the reporting confirmed “that no passages or headlines, contentions or assertions in any of the winning submissions were discredited by facts that emerged subsequent to the conferral of the prizes.
But the Pulitzer board is not interested in litigating this any further. J. Peder Zane of RealClearInvestigations called the board so that he could ask to read the report for himself, but the board said that it wouldn’t be made public.
