WASHINGTON, D.C. — Two of the best political reporters will be presented with awards at the annual White House Correspondents’ Dinner on April 25 at the Washington Hilton — Josh Dawsey (WSJ) & Kaitlan Collins (CNN). “Groundbreaking reporting about the first year of President Trump’s second term” is the theme of the winners of this year’s journalism awards from the White House Correspondents’ Association.

Also at the dinner, two independently administered awards will be presented, one for reporting that revealed Medicaid fraud in Minnesota; the other a series of stories by the New York Times.

Here is the full list of the WHCA award winners.
Politico wrote it all up this way: “AND THE AWARD GOES TO: The White House Correspondents’ Association announced its 2026 award winners, with the prize for overall excellence in White House coverage going to WSJ’s Josh Dawsey.
