Why won't it let me tell Ulfric about Whiterun?

You can't tell Ulfric about Whiterun due to a common bug after the battle, often because the game hasn't properly unloaded the warzone; try fast-traveling away and back to Whiterun via carriage, walking out of the city, or waiting a few in-game days, as these actions force the map to reset and allow dialogue. For PC users, console commands (stopquest cwobj; startquest cwobj) can also fix it.
