As far as I can tell, they didn't do any other reporting.Seanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08481452830155315560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706532154647368268.post-78993852371421831402014-09-10T05:46:42.534-07:002014-09-10T05:46:42.534-07:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08129715853608384149noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706532154647368268.post-21125499666163582602014-09-09T19:45:07.832-07:002014-09-09T19:45:07.832-07:00http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/10/sports/football/...http://www.nytimes.com/2014/09/10/sports/football/tmz-broke-ray-rice-donald-sterling-and-jameis-winston-stories-in-10-month-span.html?partner=rss&emc=rss&smid=tw-nytimes&_r=0<br />Joe Strupphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986536946742566457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706532154647368268.post-83858482295161354742014-09-09T13:49:23.815-07:002014-09-09T13:49:23.815-07:00Well stated Roy, but I would argue TMZ is primaril...Well stated Roy, but I would argue TMZ is primarily a website with a TV show as secondary outlet much like the Wall Street Journal show on Fox News, etc.<br />Joe Strupphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07986536946742566457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706532154647368268.post-28138183432026259592014-09-09T12:11:07.730-07:002014-09-09T12:11:07.730-07:00CNN.com also publishes daily online, but wouldn...CNN.com also publishes daily online, but wouldn't be eligible (at least under current Pulitzer Board interpretations) because it is primarily a broadcast outlet.

I'd argue that TMZ, like the in-eligible "60 Minutes" is primarily a TV show, and only secondarily a website. Thus, not Pulitzer-eligible. Further IMHO the story itself wouldn't even come close to qualifying in the Public Service category.Roy H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04602798839018314454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5706532154647368268.post-41701878902217078802014-09-09T11:25:45.268-07:002014-09-09T11:25:45.268-07:00Didn't it pay for the access?
