Miami Herald has certainly been my go-to source for all things Epstein. And, the dogged way Julie Brown pursued the matter is Pulitzer worthy.

In the past year the Jeffrey Epstein case was catapulted onto the national news radar by one newspaper, the Miami Herald, and by one reporter in particular, Julie K. Brown. The paper's "Perversion of Justice" series came out last November, and Brown has stayed on the story ever since.

As soon as The Daily Beast broke the news that Epstein had been arrested on Saturday evening, fellow journalists and other observers credited Brown and thanked her for the tenacious investigation.

Law enforcement officials are also giving credit to the reporting. "We were assisted" by "some excellent investigative journalism," Manhattan US Attorney Geoffrey Berman said at a Monday morning press conference.

All the more reason, IMO, to have real news instead of tabloid BS. But...time will tell if this sort of thing survives in a cutthroat market where most of us get our news free of charge.
 
Our attorney general has announced that he will not recuse himself from the case, despite his firm being the one that defended Epstein in the prior case with the disputed plea bargain.

And they have family history as well.
