In partnership with San Joaquin Delta College and local media outlet Stocktonia, Pulitzer on the Road was in Stockton, California on Thursday, February 13, 2025 for a community conversation on current issues in journalism.
The conversation featured three Pulitzer-winning journalists:
2023 Explanatory Reporting winner Caitlin Dickerson, staff writer at The Atlantic
2023 Local Reporting winner Anna Wolfe, reporter at Mississippi Today
Pulitzer Board member and 2018 Explanatory Reporting staff contributor Nicole Carroll. Carroll is the former editor-in-chief of USA Today and is a professor of practice at the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University.
The conversation was moderated by Marjorie Miller of the Pulitzer Prizes.
Along with discussing their own reporting, especially on immigration and Mississippi's welfare scandal, the journalists talked about how they uncover stories that matter, and the work and effort required to stick with a story and dig deeper. They discussed the fraught landscape today with the media under threat, and challenges faced by local news outlets especially. They also talked about how journalists rely on the public for information but also, for feedback, to help them frame stories in ways that connect with the public. As Dickerson puts it, "Journalism is a two-way street."
Fierce Mustang Media Group, San Joaquin Delta College's student run media team, filmed the event. We're grateful to Delta College faculty members, Adriana Brogger and Tara Cuslidge-Staiano, for their work in making this partnership happen, and to Fierce Mustang Media Group and all the students who participated. We're also grateful to Stocktonia, our media partner on this event.
In addition to this public conversation, the journalists also met with journalism, media, and writing students from San Joaquin Delta College earlier in the day. You can find out more about that event here:
