> they won a Pulitzer in 2021 for International Reporting
The team that won it is also very interesting:
- Megha Rajagopalan, probably the only one that is a journalist by profession. She left for the NYT [1]
- Alison Killing, an architecture and urban planning investigator [2]
- Christo Buschek, a data and computation investigator [3]
It was such an interesting mix of disciplines and expertises, and is reflected in the award for reporting in international affairs::
For a series of clear and compelling stories that used satellite imagery and architectural expertise, as well as interviews with two dozen former prisoners, to identify a vast new infrastructure built by the Chinese government for the mass detention of Muslims. [4]
Worth checking out, although it is from that era when web sites made your mouse wheel overheat from scrolling:
