Washington Post Series on Farm Subsidies
Finalist for Goldsmith Prize

The same series in The Washington Post that is nominated for a Pulitzer was on the short list for the Goldsmith prize for investigative journalism. The Wall Street Journal won for a series on insider manipulation of stock trades, but it's a credit to the Post's Dan Morgan, Gilbert Gaul and Sarah Cohen to have been in the running.

Oh, and hat tip to Donny Allen for tracking down the link to the WaPo subsidy series.
