Writers Beth Reinhard, Stephanie McCrummen, and Alice Crites (l-r), celebrate a Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting at The Washington Post in Washington, D.C. on April 16, 2018.

Last week, the Washington Post won the Pulitzer Prize for Investigative Reporting for its coverage of Alabama’s U.S. Senate candidate Roy Moore, who was accused of sexual misconduct. The Post’s reporting throughout the campaign was supported by an eight-person unit formed this past summer to quickly respond to and research story leads.

We talk to the editor of the Post’s Rapid Response Investigative team –and the editor of the Washington Post– about changes in their newsroom and the importance of investigative work.

Guests

  • Marty Baron Executive Editor, The Washington Post; @PostBaron
