WE ACTUALLY TURNED DOWN THE AWARD FOR CRITICISM: The winners of the 2005 Pulitzers have arrived. Sadly, although Newsday's "serious, energetic and substantive series examining three decades of hip-hop music in American life" was a finalist in the "explanatory reporting" category, it was defeated by the Boston Globe's coverage of the stem cell research debate. Other winners of note include WSJ film critic Joe Morgenstern, Marilynne Robinson's novel Gilead, John Patrick Shanley's play Doubt, and history writing legend David Hackett Fischer for his recent book Washington's Crossing.
