Pulitzer Prize
The Pulitzer Prizes were established as an incentive to excellence in journalism, literature, music and drama by Hungarian-born American journalist Joseph Pulitzer. Based on his deep interest in the progress and elevation of American journalism and his visionary acumen, Pulitzer created in his 1904 will these prestigious awards in a "noble profession and one of unequaled importance for its influence upon the minds and morals of the people." Having written his will broadly enough, Pulitzer gave the overseer advisory board discretion to integrate changes that now include awards for online journalism.
