Always wondered? Here’s an explanation so simple we can all grasp it.

High bar. High impact.

We hold our newsroom to a high standard — in quality of stories, ethical practices, depth of knowledge on their beats, transparency, and impact of the journalism. We like to think that it is a bar any other outlet should strive to meet, too.

We just set a new bar by winning the Pulitzer Prize for Local Reporting.

The award is a crowning achievement sitting atop a mountain of substantive impact, including change spurred by the On the Hook series that was recognized. It woke up public officials to the festering practice of towing and quickly selling people’s cars before their owners could hope to get them back. The story immediately changed the law that allowed it to happen (as immediate as government can move).

That’s what you get from CT Mirror: high caliber, high impact journalism.

The newsroom didn’t begin their multi-year investigation into the towing industry with a thought that it would win them a Pulitzer, but they did know they had something momentous that could reshape public policy.

For every long-term investigation that didn’t win a Pulitzer, many still could have for the level of reporting we did and the changes in lives and laws that came from them.

When you donate, you become part of publishing the stories and creating the impact. Will you make a gift today?

Recurring support ensures CT Mirror continues delivering the accountability journalism Connecticut needs — now and for years to come.

Thank you.
