Why Didn’t Politico’s Historic Roe v. Wade Scoop Win a Pulitzer?
Good morning from the Hive newsroom! Did Politico get snubbed for a Pulitzer Prize? Charlotte Klein probes just that in her latest dispatch on why the newsroom that broke Roe’s demise was left empty-handed this week in an outcome that shocked journalists by the dozen. Klein picks up on “behind-the-scenes whispers that Politico was judged unfairly,” as well as doubts as to “whether judges had all of the information every step of the way, due to an administrative error.”
Staying in the media-verse, Brian Stelter unpacks the potential machinations of Tucker Carlson, who he writes is “daring Fox to challenge him and assert breach of contract” by launching a new show on Twitter.
Elsewhere, Molly Jong-Fast observes that Republicans who felt “galvanized by the end of Roe” have “seized another target to reverse the gains made by women: no-fault divorce.” Thanks for reading.
