The New England team has been digging for more than a year into the investigation into Titan implosion. The source development and FOIA requests paid off as Patrick Whittle brought authority and expertise to the two weeks of coverage.
He teamed up with David Sharp, Michael Casey, Nick Perry and others from New England to produce abundance of alerts, a frequently updated Things to Know and overnight turns ready to move at midnight daily.
They broke detailed news about the craft’s failings while the competition was still catching up.
The team also produced wall-to-wall video and photo coverage. Staff VJ Rodrique Ngowi spent two days in South Carolina and produced daily video edits, one of which was the top downloaded video of the day. The stories were among the most viewed on APNews, showing how broadly their deep preparation and fast, authoritative coverage resonated with readers.
