HONORED WORK: “Inside Qaddafi’s Financial Web”
This story opens the reader to the global financial affairs of one of the world’s longest-ruling despots and suspected terrorist sponsors, Colonel Muammar Qaddafi of Libya. This work offered penetrating reporting and writing about a ruler’s empire that has long fascinated journalists but largely eluded their examination-until now.
