(AP) NEW YORK - The Associated Press won a Pulitzer Prize for investigative reporting Monday for documenting the New York Police Department's widespread spying on Muslims, while The Philadelphia Inquirer overcame extreme financial turmoil at the newspaper to win in the public service category for its examination of violence in the city's schools.
The Patriot-News in Harrisburg, Pa. — and in particular, 24-year-old reporter Sara Ganim — were honored for local reporting for breaking the Penn State sexual abuse scandal that ultimately brought down football coach Joe Paterno.
A second Pulitzer for investigative reporting was awarded to The Seattle Times
