Pulitzer Prize Suppressed by Every TV Network
CNN ran an 898-word story on the various Pulitzer winners — describing virtually every winner — but was simply unable to find any space even to mention David Barstow’s name, let alone inform their readers that he won the Prize for uncovering core corruption at the heart of CNN’s coverage of the Iraq War and other military-related matters. No other major television news outlet implicated by Barstow’s story mentioned his award, at least as far as I can tell.
