As a reporter he covered the riots that erupted in Los Angeles following the trial of police officers involved in the beating of motorist Rodney King and shared in the newspaper's Pulitzer Prize for that reportage. Sipchen published the first profile of Reginald Denny, the motorist whose televised beating on the corner of Florence and Normandy became an icon of the inchoate rage vented during the riots.
