The Times won the award Monday for Breaking News Reporting. The judges cited the “digital account” of the landslide “and the impressive follow-up reporting that ex- plored whether the calamity could have been avoided.” It is the 10th Pulitzer Prize the newspaper has won, and WKHWKLUGLQWKHODVW¿YH\HDUV The Times won the Pulitzer for Breaking News Reporting in 2010 and for Investigative Reporting in 2012. Editor Kathy Best told staffers the newspaper’s landslide coverage honored the victims of the tragedy by providing timely, detailed re- SRUWVDQGKROGLQJRI¿FLDOVDF- countable after a rain-sodden hillside collapsed on March 22, 2014, sending tons of dirt, debris and rocks onto dozens of homes in Oso, Washing- ton. “We did what any good newsroom should do when a big story breaks,” Editor Kathy Best told the news- room, which erupted in cheers after the award was announced. “We gave people accurate information when rumors and inaccuracies were swirling all over the place.” In the days after the land- slide, the deadliest in U.S. history, rescue crews and desperate family and friends used chain saws and their bare hands to pick through the debris looking for pos- sible survivors.
