"Columbia Journalism School announced today that Jeffrey Goldberg, editor in chief of The Atlantic, and the moderator of " Washington Week with The Atlantic" on PBS, is the recipient of the 2025 John Chancellor Award for Excellence in Journalism. For more than 35 years, Goldberg has worked as a journalist of remarkable range, ability and influence. His reporting and analysis of foreign affairs, national security and domestic politics have garnered respect from readers and leaders alike."
"At a challenging time for journalism business models, he has led The Atlantic to both journalistic and business successes: three Pulitzer Prizes, three National Magazine Awards for General Excellence and profitability, growing the magazine's audience to over one million subscribers. He joined The Atlantic in 2007 as a national correspondent, and in 2016 he was named editor in chief. Before joining the magazine, Goldberg served as the Middle East correspondent and then the Washington correspondent for The New Yorker."
"Goldberg has a proven instinct for knowing where the news is, and for having the courage to pursue stories that others won't. Earlier this year, he demonstrated his reportorial rigor in an unusual scoop known as Signalgate. Goldberg was inadvertently included in a high-level group chat on the Signal platform by National Security Advisor Mike Waltz that broke protocol by disseminating classified attack plans of an assault on the Houthis in Yemen."
