Notably, CalMatters and CBS News won the innovation in journalism prize for their work on California’s Fentanyl Fight: "Judges cited the team’s work with the groundbreaking Digital Democracy database built by CalMatters, which used artificial intelligence and emerging technologies to further empower watchdog journalism and fill the reporting void left in statehouses across the country. The database collected information on millions of votes and hundreds of hours of hearings, allowing reporters to reveal hidden practices of California’s Democratic supermajority legislature."
