For a lot of newsrooms in the United States, the announcement of the winners of the 2022 Pulitzer Prizes on Monday offered the first chance to celebrate together in a long time.
For one winner, it was also a very pandemic experience. Natalie Wolchover won, along with the staff of Quanta Magazine, for Explanatory Reporting.
I’m lying in bed in a COVID daze struggling to believe that this is real and not a fever dream. I mean, holy crap. Thank you all for the nice messages!!! https://t.co/BZqYpJOkrv

I’m in Jerusalem, but my heart is in my newsroom (and in my throat). So proud to be a Postie, winner of the Public Service Pulitzer for some extraordinary coverage of Jan. 6. pic.twitter.com/HSxQlOInXK

So proud of my colleague at NYT and Columbia @AzmatZahra who just won a Pulitzer for her work on civilian victims of the US government.
She started her speech by thanking the victims around the world who talked to her, sometimes at great risk, and whistleblowers who guided her. https://t.co/C2upRa9OSG pic.twitter.com/TGyEWZtswo

The Civilian Casualty Files—A1 of today’s @nytimes—is the culmination of 5 years of investigation: at airstrike sites in Iraq, Syria and Afghanistan, a years-long legal battle with the Pentagon, 1,311 military ‘assessments’ and scores of interviews… https://t.co/uauULKMumt pic.twitter.com/EvkG7sdjPQ
