Journalists of Ukraine awarded special citation of 2022 Pulitzer Prize
Journalists of Ukraine received a special Pulitzer Prize 2022 award.
The organizing committee thanked journalists from Ukraine for their commitment to the profession: «The Pulitzer Commission awards Special Mention to Ukrainian journalists for their courage, resilience and commitment to truthful reporting during Vladimir Putin’s relentless invasion of their country and his propaganda war in Russia. Despite shelling, kidnappings, occupation and even death in their ranks, they are persistently trying to give an accurate picture of the terrible reality that does honor to Ukraine and journalists around the world.»
The Pulitzer Prize in the main Public Service category went to The Washington Post. It was awarded for its detailed chronology of the January 6, 2021 assault on the Capitol by supporters of then U.S. President Donald Trump.
The New York Times received the award for its international and national reports. In the first article journalists reported on civilian deaths in the Middle East caused by U.S. shelling, and in the second — on American drivers killed by police during arrests.
Journalists from The Miami Herald, The Tampa Bay Times, Getty Images, The Los Angeles Times and other media outlets also won awards in various categories.
