Irish journalists win Pulitzer Prize for Sudan war coverage
Declan Walsh, who is based in Kenya and is from Ballina, Co Mayo, won the prize for his reporting on the Sudan civil war, along with the staff of the New York Times, where he is chief Africa correspondent. Among the team was Cork-born photographer Ivor Prickett. Mr Walsh, who attended UCD and DCU, previously reported from the Middle East, and was expelled from Pakistan in 2013 because of his work, which he continued while based in London. The New York Times won four Pulitzer Prizes and the New Yorker three on Monday for journalism in 2024 that touched on topics like the fentanyl crisis, the US military and last summer's assassination attempt on US president Donald Trump. The Pulitzers' prestigious public service medal went to ProPublica for the second straight year. Kavitha Surana, Lizzie Presser, Cassandra Jaramillo and Stacy Kranitz were honoured for reporting on pregnant women who died after doctors delayed urgent care in states with strict abortion laws. The Washington Post won for 'urgent and illuminating' breaking news coverage of the Trump assassination attempt. The Pulitzers honoured Ann Telnaes, who quit the Post in January after the news outlet refused to run her editorial cartoon lampooning tech chiefs — including Post owner Jeff Bezos — cozying up to Trump. The Pulitzers praised her 'fearlessness.' The Pulitzers honoured the best in journalism from 2024 in 15 categories, along with eight arts categories including books, music and theatre. The public service winner receives a gold medal. All other winners receive $15,000. The New York Times showed its breadth with awards honouring reporting from Afghanistan, Sudan, Baltimore and Butler, Pennsylvania. Doug Mills won in breaking news photography for his pictures of the Trump assassination attempt, including one that captured a bullet in the air near the GOP candidate. The Times' Azam Ahmed and Christina Goldbaum and contributing writer Matthieu Aikins won an explanatory reporting prize for examining U.S. policy failures in Afghanistan. Declan Walsh and the Times' staff won for an investigation into the Sudan conflict, which revealed the role of the United Arab Emirates in the conflict. The Times was also part of a collaboration with The Baltimore Banner, whose reporters Alissa Zhu, Nick Thieme and Jessica Gallagher won in local reporting for stories on that city's fentanyl crisis and its disproportionate effect on Black men. The Banner was created three years ago, with several staffers who had left the Baltimore Sun. Reuters won for its own investigative series on fentanyl, showing how lax regulation both inside and outside the United States makes the drug inexpensive and widely available.
