In today's Brief Encounters, we explore the Pulitzer Prize — and get surprised at every turn. Joseph

Pulitzer shot a man in his twenties and kept his political career. He invented yellow journalism. He treated newsboys so

badly there was a strike in 1899 (that's the Newsies). Then he died and left money to fund the prize that now bears his

name.


We also cover: this year's fiction winner Angel Down by Daniel Kraus (one sentence, the whole book), the $15,000 prize

that shocked us both, a quiet ethics controversy on this year's board, and the Newberry Award books that shaped us as

kids.


Facts and Fictions is a cozy book club podcast where we talk about the books we're reading and the thoughts we have on them.
