Wrong. According to the Pulitzer site it is pronounced like "Pull it, Sir."

Addendum: My father won two Pulitzer Prizes, and was once at a dinner for Pulitzer winners where he met Mrs. Joseph Pulitzer, the late newsman's widow. He asked her to settle the issue, and she said that it was and always had been pronounced "PULL-it-zer".
