...Philadelphia story was one of the most elaborate Pulitzer-winning investigations since the Watergate days of Woodward and Bernstein-a pair that Neumann, 28, and Marimow, 30, evoke in their youth, dedication and hand-in-glove collaborative ease. They even had a "Deep Nightstick," a source with close ties to the police department who nudged their investigations in the right direction.
