Sometimes newspapers and reporters win a Pulitzer prize for just being in the right place at the right time and win award for doing their job covering a tragedy. Other Pulitzers are given for exception stories that every reporter in America has a chance to write. Jim Sheeler at Denver’s Rocky Mountain News has done that with his story Final Salute where he tells the story of a Marine notification officer whose job it is to inform relatives that they have lost their love one. Sheeler won the 2006 Pulitzer Prize for Feature Writing.
