on Monday for its stories that uncovered recordings in which City Council members made racist remarks.
The recordings last year set off a furor at City Hall, leading to the resignation of City Council President Nury Martinez and other civic officials. The Times’ Christina House also won a Pulitzer for feature photography for images of a pregnant 22-year-old living on the street. The Times’ expose on the City Council members conversation won in the breaking news category, beating two other finalists: Josh Gerstein, Alex Ward, Peter S. Canellos. Hailey Fuchs and Heidi Przybyla of Politico for their bombshell story on the leaked draft opinion overturning Roe Vs. Wade. The Pulitzer jury moved their entry to breaking news from the national reporting category.
