In a post about today's Pulitzer Prize announcements, Glenn Greenwald highlights a great quote from Boston Globe Editor Martin Baron on the work of the reporter who won one of the awards:
"What Charlie does and the reason he won this richly deserved Pulitzer is because he covered what the White House does, not just what it says," Globe Editor Martin Baron told his staff as they hoisted champagne and cheered Savage this afternoon in the newsroom.
What the White House does, not just what it says. If only there were more reporters who understood that the point of journalism is to cover both parts.
Congratulations to Charlie Savage for a much deserved award.
