How did Joseph Pulitzer, once a penniless young Jewish immigrant from Hungary, come to challenge a popular president and fight for freedom of the press as essential to a democracy? Joseph Pulitzer is an American icon who spoke of “fake news” over 100 years ago. While he is remembered for the prizes bearing his name, his personal heroic battles have been forgotten, as has the artistry and game changing originality he brought to newspapers.
