The Associated Press won two Pulitzer Prizes on Monday , including the distinguished public service award, for its coverage of the war in Ukraine, while the New York Times earned the international reporting honour for its stories about the Russian invasion.
The annual Pulitzer awards, first presented in 1917, are the most celebrated honours in US journalism. The prizes are named for newspaper publisher Joseph Pulitzer, who died in 1911 and left money to create the awards and establish a journalism school at Columbia University. The Los Angeles Times won the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news for revealing a secretly recorded conversation among city council members that included racist comments, a scandal that prompted two officials to resign. The newspaper's Christina House also earned the feature photography award for her series showing the life of a pregnant homeless woman.
