"The Washington Post: For its compellingly told and vividly presented account of the assault on Washington on January 6, 2021, providing the public with a thorough and unflinching understanding of one of the nation's darkest days."
Indeed. Zero questions remaining. I understand unflinchingly, whatever that is.
- Jonovono 4y agoI wonder how much Bezos paid for that !
- gaws 4y agoBezos has zero control or sway in any editorial decision made by the newsroom.
- Jonovono 4y agoAh, good to know. Thanks Jeffrey.
- gaws 4y agoLow T response. I'm not the biggest Bezos or Amazon fan, but his hands-off approach for The Washington Post has been reported on -- and continually monitored -- by multiple news organizations since he purchased it years ago. If he stepped in and blocked a story, whether it was about him, Amazon or something else, people would know about it.
- Bud 4y agoWaPo's coverage was indeed excellent. The best that I read anywhere, overall. Good call by the Pulitzer board.
- ibejoeb 4y agoThe part where they explained why the capitol police officers were escorting people into the building was perhaps the most vividly compelling.

- gaws 4y agoNo single piece won the award. A collection of videos, photos, texts, graphics, and other things did it.
