Considered one of the most prestigious awards in US journalism, the Pulitzers also recognize literature, drama and music.
United States:Coverage of the wars in Gaza and Sudan, and the attempted assassination of US President Donald Trump, dominated the Pulitzer Prizes announced Monday at Columbia University in New York.
Considered one of the most prestigious awards in US journalism, the Pulitzers also recognize literature, drama and music.
The core issues of the 2024 US presidential campaign took center stage at the awards, which recognized coverage of Trump and his bloodied ear after a July 13 assassination attempt, as well as the loss of abortion rights for women in the United States.
The Washington Post staff won in the category of breaking news reporting for the paper's "urgent and illuminating" coverage of the gunshot that wounded Trump during a rally in Pennsylvania.
The prize for public service reporting went to ProPublica's reporting on the deterioration of US women's access to abortion and reproductive health care, which profiled pregnant women who died after doctors delayed urgently needed care for fear of violating "vague" rules in "states with strict abortion laws," the committee wrote.
