The Washington Post wins two Pulitzer Prizes in breaking news reporting and illustrated reporting and commentary. Post reporters were also finalists in three categories, including national and international reporting as well as commentary. wapo.st/4mkkGkT

The Washington Post’s staff won the Pulitzer Prize for breaking news reporting for the comprehensive coverage of the July 13 attempt to assassinate Donald Trump in Butler, Pa.

This included coverage from photographer Jabin Botsford, who was just a few feet from Trump near the stage and remained in his position through the chaos. In addition to feeding back compelling photographs, he also recorded live video.

The same night, The Post published a gripping dispatch by reporter Isaac Arnsdorf and Botsford describing the chaos at the fairground, a more vivid and detailed description than other news organizations at that hour.

Other outstanding work honored in the category included in-depth visual forensics around security failures and audio investigations that elevated new details from the event.

The Pulitzer Prize for illustrated reporting and commentary goes to @anntelnaes.bsky.social, for various works that appeared in The Washington Post. This is her third Pulitzer recognition.
