The Pulitzer Prizes were handed out on Monday.

The Daily News shared the award for Public Service with the not-for-profit journalism site ProPublica.

But in a rarity, Jim Rich, the editor-in-chief who oversaw the series, had already been booted from the embattled paper months earlier.

His name was omitted from the company’s announcement about the award, but Rich did turn up in the newsroom to stand side by side with the man who replaced him, Arthur Browne.

The main writer of the series, Sarah Ryley, was also there for the photo op, even though she had already told the News she was quitting to join the not-for-profit investigative site, The Trace.
