"The shady business dealings of a President's family, which turned out to be real after we lied to you and said that they were fake, are simply not INTERESTING to someone of advanced intellect and properly refined journalistic tastes." This moment to me encapsulates the death of mainstream journalism.
The Pultizer committee is absolute proof that racial diversity isn't divisive. It is an association different gendered and racially diverse Marxist idiots stroking each others backs for synchronized thought.
Based on the cold-blooded arrogance with which she delivered the "I just don't find it interesting" line, it sounds to me like pure psychopathy.
Like when Hannibal Lecter killed the paramedics, her heart rate never even went above 85 beats per minute as she strangled the concept of journalism to death and ate its beating heart.
“We don’t want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don’t want to waste the listeners’ and readers’ time on stories that are just pure distractions,” said Terence Samuel, NPR’s managing editor. “And quite frankly, that’s where we ended up, this was … a politically driven event and we decided to treat it that way.”
Mike Benz did a whole thread on her 'nuking her credibility' back on September 11, 2023 on X. It's brilliant how he exposes her clandestine government funded operation 'as a member of a busted British Intelligence operation set up for covert censorship & political warfare operations known as the Integrity Initiative.' He goes onto describe the operation and show how way back in 2018 they plotted to 'kill the Nordstream pipeline...and prevent construction.' The day the pipeline was mysteriously blown up 4 years later it was her husband, the Polish Defense Minister, who famously thanked the US Government for blowing it up on X. She's a CIA operative and prints what they tell her to
What the...? I knew the committees in charge of the Pultizer Prizes had to be awful. But even I had little idea how AWFL the "journalism" prize committee is. Wow!
Came here to say that. Pulitzer was a person so the rename needs to be another person. If Yuri can come up with a communist propagandist who is as famous, that would be acceptable.
The Pulitzer acceptance speech also needs to be about how receiving the prize just proves how oppressed the recipient is and how much more work needs to be done.
Nikole Hannah-Jones: "America doesn't want the story of the 1619 Project to be told. If you missed the special glossy Sunday magazine issue in the paper of record and the year-long series of follow up stories in the Times, you can learn more about how I am being silenced in the expanded hardcover edition of the 1619 Project, the elementary school curriculum module distributed by the New York Times, the special illustrated edition of the book, or the children's edition of the 1619 Project. See even more about my oppression and silencing in the upcoming Netflix special based on my work."
Thank you - explains a lot. Who selected these people? Did USAID have a role? How are the Pulitzer Prizes / committee funded; is the funding source(s) taxed?
The Pulitzer has become has become the woke participation trophy for the ideological victim class. It should be shaped like this💩. Zero credibility. Zero net worth. And now deserves zero attention.
Love the term "Karentocracy" and it is perfect for Mass. The difference between this crew and the writers at Pravada is the latter knew they were writing bullshit while these people probably actually believe what they spew out.
Also, most of the awards are for writing about problems that the Government they so like, and the people they support and elect cause. It's like writing an article about how oppressed your pet rattlesnake is and the bravery it showed in biting you.
Digression, but: Massachusetts is circling the drain. The governor is dancing as fast as she can to make up faux compliance with federal laws and the Mayor of Boston seems to have fallen silent subsequent to being subpoenaed to testify before Congress. (To be fair, she has cited childbirth as a reason for postponing her appearance. Truly cannot argue with that.)
However, the state legislature just authorized another $425M for migrant services.
The Karentocracy may be a living example of the wonders that can be worked through embracing principals of social justice and spending like drunken sailors.
The other madness that Gov. Healey has embraced is offshore wind. As per the U.K. and Europe it is the recipe for economic suicide. This is accompanied by the destruction of the whales, other marine life and the fishing industry.
2023: The inaugural Dao Prize of $100,000 for the "Twitter Files" to Matt Taibbi, Bari Weiss and Michael Shellenberger. The prize is awarded by the conservative group National Journalism Center in partnership with the Daofeng and Angela Foundation. The prize began after Gabe Kaminsky, an investigative reporter, was awarded the National Journalism Center's inaugural prize for excellence in investigative journalism in 2022.
2024: The inaugural Samizdat Prize from Real Clear Politics for First Amendment Courage with Miranda Devine and Jay Bhattacharya.
Someone, please enlighten me on how and when illiberal subversion entered the university eco-system and was accelerated to these heights. I graduated from Miami University in 1990 (Political Science) and the only semblance of critical theory was the "Take Back the Night Marches". It seems like the Frankfurt School - Columbia - Ivy League was not contained to the faculty break rooms. What happened?
There is a very good recent article at TABLET--focus is "the permission structure machine"--Bullying large numbers of people into faddish hyperconformity by controlling the machinery of social approval.
“manufacturing consent”--Rewiring the machinery that produced what Walter Lippmann once identified, in his 1922 book, as “public opinion.”
You should also read about Sir William Berkeley, who was one of the first to manipulate racial divisions to prevent unified opposition from challenging the status quo. He believed the most effective way to do this was through relentless character attacks, shaming opponents so brutally that they couldn’t fight back. This tactic has since become a hallmark of corrupt politicians, who use identity politics to divide and weaken the public while consolidating their own power.
Albeit unrelated, here's a nice one for you Yuri. Do you know why Stacy Abrams played the role of the president of the federation in Star Trek Discovery?
Well, it turns out the VP of DEI at Paramount, who owns the Star Trek IP, ran a PAC for several years and raised millions for Abrams for the 2016 election.
You gotta give it to the woke, they sure mastered the art of subversion.
Anne Applebaum is a political hack and a terrible writer. Very interested in learning more about Stalin's camps, I eagerly purchased her book, "Gulag" and couldn't wait to read it. It was so poorly written, I couldn't finish it. Of course, it won the Pulitzer Prize.
“…the rule of thumb is that the longer the bio, the more full of BS someone is.”
Have you ever noticed how long the bios of D-listers are at Wikipedia? They will tediously list every single project the person did, often at length. “In 2008 she garnered praise for her performance as guest host in an episode of Canada’s Got Talent, in which she improvised many of her lines. Later that year….”
Meanwhile someone like Elizabeth Taylor is a 3-minute read.
This is the moment that you should always think of regarding Anne Applebaum:

My response to that X clip was “ holy 💩 “ Never liked her… but this was beyond anything i could process
The Pultizer committee is absolute proof that racial diversity isn't divisive. It is an association different gendered and racially diverse Marxist idiots stroking each others backs for synchronized thought.
The least diverse person in any organization is always the Diversity Officer.
Their main activity is virtue signaling and becoming an echo chamber of the “ narrative”
Remember, peasant, the only reason you don't believe what she says is because we don't do enough to censor online misinformation.
It's hard for me to differentiate between whether it's delusion or just evil that emanates from inside their carefully curated bubble.
Delusion emanating in order to justify their evil intent.
Delusion serving the cognitive dissonance that would arise if they honestly looked at their own evil intent.
Exactly. It is probably both, not one or the other.
Both often go hand in hand together.
Evil. A circle of evil bent on destroying our country and everything decent in it. A cabal of evil.
Based on the cold-blooded arrogance with which she delivered the "I just don't find it interesting" line, it sounds to me like pure psychopathy.
Like when Hannibal Lecter killed the paramedics, her heart rate never even went above 85 beats per minute as she strangled the concept of journalism to death and ate its beating heart.
Wasn't that the same response that NPR gave?

Thanks Yuri. I have to go take a shower now. 😂
The Pulitzer should be named the Goebbels Prize for obvious reasons.
Came here to say that. Pulitzer was a person so the rename needs to be another person. If Yuri can come up with a communist propagandist who is as famous, that would be acceptable.
Obviously, the Gramsci Prize would be fitting as well as perfectly descriptive.
The Pulitzer acceptance speech also needs to be about how receiving the prize just proves how oppressed the recipient is and how much more work needs to be done.

Pulitzer and mandatory school books deals for the perennially voiceless
What a diverse group of credentialed criminals.
Thank you - explains a lot. Who selected these people? Did USAID have a role? How are the Pulitzer Prizes / committee funded; is the funding source(s) taxed?
After a certain point, one passed long ago, they are self-selected.
The Pulitzer has become has become the woke participation trophy for the ideological victim class. It should be shaped like this💩. Zero credibility. Zero net worth. And now deserves zero attention.

that was back when she was against totalitarianism, before she was for it.
Excellent rundown of this unseemly rogues' gallery.
Grievance Studies? No wonder these people look pleased as Punch.
