Talk:Binyamin Appelbaum

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

on "heading " a team. Some newspapers submit the name of the lead reporter, others submit the whole team. Plus, you can see by the dates that this guy jumped to the Globe just after this series was finished. Naturally the Observer would want the prize submission to list reporters who still work for them.

No, what I mean is that this particular award (unlike many other of the Polk awards) was presented to the paper, not to a specific individual or group of reporters. Appelbaum was clearly a member of the award-winning team, but nothing in the two sources cited indicates that he was its leader. (He was listed first, but that seems to be for purely alphabetical reasons.) I'm changing "team headed by Appelbaum" to "team including Appelbaum", until a reliable source can be found stating that he was in fact the formal head. Hqb (talk) 22:36, 26 February 2008 (UTC)
