Today is Pulitzer day*

The 2011 Pulitzer Prizes winners will be announced at 3 p.m. Eastern today. Names will be posted here.

*Update: The Los Angeles Times won in the public service category for its reports on the City of Bell salary scandal. The investigative award went to the Sarasota Herald-Tribune, and the Chicago Sun-Times won for local reporting. In the latter category, the Pulitzer board mentioned that Marshall Allen, formerly of the Pasadena Star-News and now with ProPublica, was a finalist, along with his coauthor Alex Richards.

What a painful day to be a LANG reporter. While other newspapers practice JOURNALISM, LANG reporters work hard to fill news holes. Even so, if a reporter did a great job on a story, the editors would likely be too lazy to make that story better, and management would be too cheap or else too closed minded to enter stories (other than the same old sports drivel and boring editorial columns) into worthwhile newspaper contests.

actually 11:41, Steve Lambert is obsessed with submitting stories to contests, or at least he was when he was on the editorial side. the paper he was at before he came to California, the Eagle-Tribune of Lawrence, Mass., won a Pulitzer in 2003 -- less than a year after he left.

what I left out of the above comment is, newsroom innuendo suggests he has something to prove because of the previous award he missed out on.
