Congrats to Jesse Eisinger and Jake Bernstein — part of MrB’s team at ProPublica<\/a> — for winning the Pulitzer for National Reporting<\/a>! The Pulitzer board recognized Jesse and Jake for their stories about “how some Wall Street bankers, seeking to enrich themselves at the expense of their clients and sometimes even their own firms, at first delayed but then worsened the financial crisis<\/a>.”<\/p>\n

This is ProPublica’s second Pulitzer in two years<\/a> and the eighteenth Pulitzer won by a news organization led by MrB. Sixteen of those Pulitzers were won by the Wall Street Journal while MrB was that paper’s managing editor.<\/p>\n
