1932 Walter Duranty, for reporting of the news from Russia. (Other writers in The Times and elsewhere have discredited this coverage.)
Welsh investigation journalist Gareth Jones and Malcolm Muggeridge were telling the truth when the Times was lying. The paper had to know they were printing lies when they printed them. Duranty's notorious 1933 article above was a hit piece on Jones for exposing the crimes of Stalin. In addition, Duranty wasn't the only Times reporter covering for Stalin. Harold Denny followed Duranty at the papers Moscow office and he too denied the genocide which was occurring.
The least the paper could do is acknowledge its slander of Jones and give him and Muggeridge credit instead of saying writers "elsewhere" discredited Duranty's work. Muggeridge lost his job at the Guardian for telling the truth. Jones was killed in China in 1935 and his work has slipped into obscurity.
