Archelaus said --- "Not recently. There was one time back in 1980 when a Washington Post journalist named Janet Cooke wrote a story titled "Jimmy's World" that turned out to be false and the award was rescinded."

..in which it says...
"Let's not forget that The Washington Post and The New York Times won the 2018 Pultizer Prize for their national reporting of President Donald Trump's alleged collusion with Russia. They were awarded $15,000 in a joint prize."
Incidentally. Tucker Carlson is a TV host at the moment, but he has been and still is a journalist by profession.
I'm one amongst a great many around the world who thinks the election was rigged and stolen from Trump.
Here's the full text of their award description:
For deeply sourced, relentlessly reported coverage in the public interest that dramatically furthered the nation's understanding of Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and its connections to the Trump campaign, the President-elect’s transition team and his eventual administration. (The New York Times entry, submitted in this category, was moved into contention by the Board and then jointly awarded the Prize.)

None of their reporting was debunked. The Mueller report validated most of their reporting, concluding that Russia had interfered in the 2016 presidential election. Also, there were numerous ties between Russian officials and Trump campaign personnel, but there was not enough to conclude that a conspiracy had taken place.
