New York Times wins 4 Pulitzers, New Yorker 3; Washington Post wins for coverage of Trump shooting
- Ann Telnaes, a longtime Washington Post editorial cartoonist, quit in January 2024 after editors killed her cartoon criticizing media executives bowing to Trump.
- Her departure followed editorial censorship linked to owner Jeff Bezos and other executives courting Trump, including a $1 million donation to his inauguration fund.
- The Post limited its opinion section’s focus to issues related to individual freedoms and market principles, leading to the departure of editor David Shipley and columnist Ruth Marcus.
- Ann Telnaes received the Pulitzer Prize for her editorial cartoons, which delivered sharp critique of influential figures and institutions with creativity and boldness—an approach that contributed to her departure from The Washington Post after 17 years.
- This situation reflects tensions over press independence amid internal Post changes and editorial conflicts under Bezos' ownership during recent political shifts.
