Trump Calls for '18 Pulitzer Prizes to Be Stripped for Being Fake News
[NewsMax] "I call on the Pulitzer Prize Board to immediately rescind the 2018 Pulitzer Prize for National Reporting awarded to the staffs of The New York Times and The Washington Post, which was based on false reporting of a non-existent link between the Kremlin and the Trump campaign," the statement began. "As has been widely publicized, the coverage was no more than a politically motivated farce which attempted to spin a false narrative that my campaign supposedly colluded with Russia despite a complete lack of evidence underpinning this allegation." If the NYT looked past Walter Duranty, they'll clutch said Pulitzer as though it were pearls. But it will be entertaining to see The Grey Lady and The Post grasp at increasingly implausible straws justifying the prize. Or (unsuccessfully) ignore the story entirely.Posted by: Anomalous Sources 2021-10-04 |
