Gerald Loeb Award for Breaking News (2008–present)

"These two reporters at The New York Times broke and kept breaking the news, providing astonishing perspective and continuous scoops on the ouster of Merrill Lynch CEO E. Stanley O’Neal. Written with authority built on tremendous sourcing, this was a fascinating case study of the downfall of a leader and simultaneously signified an historic moment on Wall Street. The Times delivered reporting, analysis and writing at breakneck speed, often reporting events before they were announced." [1]
"This special report was an authoritative, comprehensive examination of a key day for Michigan readers- and for an iconic American industry struggling to survive- in the pivotal labor agreement reached in the aftermath of the UAW’s strike against General Motors. Merx and her colleagues at the Detroit Free Press did a superb job of breaking the latest news, being the first in the nation to report the terms of agreement online, while also adding context to relay the broader significance of the agreement to future dealings with U.S. automakers."
