No Pulitzer winners are biz journalism

The Pulitzers have been announced, and unfortunately there are no winners that would classify as business journalism coverage.

Last year, there were two winners that were business journalism related. Amy Dockser Marcus of the Wall Street Journal won for the beat reporting category about the cancer business, while Walt Bogdanich from the New York Times won in the national reporting category for stories about the corporate cover-up of fatal accidents at railway crossings.

In 2004, both the New York Times and the Los Angeles Times won for stories related to business. The NYT series was about workplace injuries, whle the LA Times series was on Wal-Mart.
