The '''[[Pulitzer Prize]] for [[breaking news|Breaking News]] Photography''', has been awarded since [[2000]]. Before 1968, there was only one photography category, the [[Pulitzer Prize for Photography]], which was divided into the [[Pulitzer Prize for Spot News Photography]] (later renamed breaking news) and [[Pulitzer Prize for Feature Photography|feature]] categories. The Pulitzer Committee issues an official citation explaining the reasons for the award.
