The Honor is . . . Dubious

Everybody likes to be recognized by his or her colleagues. Everybody likes to receive public awards from members of their own profession, recognizing the contributions they've made during the year.

Well, maybe not everybody and maybe not every award. Take Norman Soloman's P.U. Litzer Awards, for instance. Does anybody really want to be recognized for the "stinkiest media performance of the year" ? Or even one of the stinkiest ?

What qualifies you ? How about referring to the lethal injection that took the life of Stanley "Tookie" Williams as a "medical procedure" ? Twice.

Or just being Judy Miller explaining the truckloads of water she hauled for the Bush Administration in the runup to Iraq.

See Truthout for the whole shameful, and sadly hilarious, list.

Stay Naked.
