2004 Pulitzer PrizeThe Pulitzer Prizes for 2004 were announced on April 5, 2004. The Los Angeles Times won five journalism awards, the most that the newspaper has ever won in a single year and second only to the New York Times in 2002 for the most won in a year by any paper. The presentations took place at a luncheon at Columbia University in May. They were the 88th presentation of the prizes. Journalism awards - Beat Reporting:

- Staff of the Los Angeles Times, for its compelling and comprehensive coverage of the massive wildfires that imperiled a populated region of southern California.
- Breaking News Photography:
- Commentary:
- Leonard Pitts Jr., Miami Herald, for his fresh, vibrant columns that spoke, with both passion and compassion, to ordinary people on often divisive issues.
- Criticism:

- Editorial Cartooning:
- Editorial Writing:
- Explanatory Reporting:
- Feature Photography:
- Carolyn Cole, Los Angeles Times, for her cohesive, behind-the-scenes look at the effects of civil war in Liberia, with special attention to innocent citizens caught in the conflict.

- Anthony Shadid, Washington Post, for his extraordinary ability to capture, at personal peril, the voices and emotions of Iraqis as their country was invaded, their leader toppled and their way of life upended.
- Investigative Reporting:
- National Reporting:
- Staff of the Los Angeles Times, for its engrossing examination of the tactics that have made Wal-Mart the largest company in the world with cascading effects across American towns and developing countries.
