What is the Pulitzer Prize about?

Pulitzer Prize-various American news, culture and art awards, founded by Joseph Pulitzer, a famous American journalist and newspaper operator. Pulitzer made a will before his death, donated his property to Columbia University, and established the Pulitzer Prize, which will be awarded once a year from 19 17. Looking back on the 87-year history, the award-winning works are known as "the most responsible words and the most beautiful words in America", and their news awards are the highest honor of the American press and become the goal and the highest dream of journalists' career.

The Pulitzer Prize for Journalism is awarded to "American newspapers published every day, Sunday or at least once a week" and works published on them. Unlike other Pulitzer Prizes, the winners of journalism awards do not need to have American citizenship, but their entries must be published in American newspapers at least once a week.

The selection begins at the beginning of each year. A jury composed of well-known journalists, editors, news educators and freelance writers carefully screened thousands of works from all over the country and sent the nomination list to the secret group of the Pulitzer Prize Committee for deliberation. Finally, the Subcommittee presented a list of winners to all members, which was officially announced by the president of Columbia University.

At present, the Pulitzer Prize for Journalism includes 14 categories: public service award, news live report award, investigation report award, explanatory report award, exclusive special report award, national affairs report award, international affairs report award (including the United Nations), special writing award, review award, editorial writing award, cartoon review award, breaking news photography award and close-up photography award. The Pulitzer prize is $7,500, but there is no prize for the report that won the public service award. The winning newspaper will win the Pulitzer Prize.
