Douglas Moser’s Biography
Read Full Bio →Investigative reporting has been a passion of mine since getting into journalism. The revealing stories I read in The New York Times and The Washington Post in my journalistic formative years – the early- and mid-00s – instilled in me a sense of duty. Reporting can and should make a difference by revealing what others would rather the public not know, and holding the powerful accountable.

Investigative reporting, first place
2016 - Investigative reporting
A strong, well-documented piece of dogged investigative reporting that holds the powerful accountable.
Government Reporting, First Place
2016 - Government reporting
Massachusetts politics at its worst; Moser serves a heaping helping of M. Paul Iannuccillo doing what he does best: nothing -- and at tax payers' expense. The Northern Essex register of deeds is a willing accomplice in this story about how not to work; "I'm here a lot, I am. I move around as well." If there's anything worse than this man's work ethic, it's the rhetorical back-pedaling that Moser exposes when trying to get his fellow officials to condemn Iannuccillo or criticize his subsequent hiring of an assistant who makes almost as much money as he does. Sparkling journalism, old-fashioned shoe leather reporting!
