The Pulitzer board has only ever revoked a prize once, in 1981. Washington Post reporter Janet Cooke's story of an eight-year-old ghetto boy already addicted to heroin was revealed to be a fabrication.

Strictly speaking, this is not accurate. Janet Cooke voluntarily returned her Pulitzer after admitting her fraud, though her prize almost certainly would have been revoked had she not done so.

Well off-topic, but I actually saw Janet Cooke in Kalamazoo, Michigan outside the department store where she worked - a very pretty woman.
