In 1993, for example, we became place, and Julia Whitty investigated the scientific and ecological impact of the the first general interest national magazine to launch a website, while more spill. This collaborative effort earned big kudos from our friends in the media recently we’ve pioneered the use of social-media sites like Twitter to break industry: Stories related to the BP spill won awards from the Sidney Hillman stories, galvanize readers, and deliver real-time updates.

In 2011, Mother Jones deployed Josh Harkinson to Zuccotti Facebook Twitter Park for months of daily coverage on the Occupy movement in New York City, along with nationwide up-to-the-minute coverage of the movement from coast to coast.

This was a time not only of protest at home, but also of upheaval throughout the Middle East. During the Arab Spring, Mother Jones launched our much-praised “explainer” series— Traffic explodes 2010–11 regularly updated, easy-to-follow digests that combined original reporting with curation of the best dispatches, graphics, and images from other news sources, all organized in real- 80 time chronology. 70 We also used new journalistic tools to open our investigations up to readers.

Mother Jones’ reporting had an impact on national and international debates, as well as the nation’s legislative agenda, throughout 2010 and 2011. Some examples of how MoJo reporting made waves—and headlines:
