- Judges’ Comments – The Financial Times newsletter FT Due Diligence showcases deep, insightful reporting, innovative use of graphics and stylish writing as it casts a skeptical eye on the world of deal-making, from a wild trading day in the life of Tesla to the “disastrous” performance of General Electric’s Wall Street advisors. The judges agreed that the distinct approaches taken by these two newsletters reflect the reality that there are several newsletter formats evolving at this time, with variations in tone and content.
