Barry Siegel Prized Work

     Barry Siegel's award winning piece "A Father's Pain, a Judge's Duty, and a Justice Beyond Their Reach" is simply amazing. The way that Barry Siegel describes the unfortunate tragedy of  child Gage Wayment is so sad, it basically melts my heart. The word choice was simple but it made the story feel complex. He used some repetition but not that much. He reported this story as the story was being reported by the people in the incident and not as a reporter. He had an un-bias opinion but you still had an opinion after you read the story. After reading the article you can tell why he won the Pulitzer Award.
