RECENTLY, The New York Times Won 3 Pulitzers.

The Times won in the categories of commentary, investigative journalism and international reporting.

What was their prize for commentary?

Commentary: Nikole Hannah-Jones for The 1619 Project

Ms. Hannah-Jones was recognized for her essay examining how slavery shaped the country — from its democracy to its material wealth — and how slavery’s legacy has persisted for the 400 years since the first slave ship reached Virginia.

It was part of The 1619 Project, a series from New York Times writers and guest essayists including Bryan Stevenson, Trymaine Lee and Linda Villarosa.

I always thought it was a Communist Prize; like "Hero of the Soviet Union."

They’re in good company. So have the Nobel Prizes, the Oscars, the Tonys, the Phonys, the Baloneys ... and all the rest of those meaningless celebutard awards given to the most PC virtue-signalers.

Hearing about a Pulitzer prize usually makes me think of something disgusting, like a 40 year old man having sex with his 18 year old daughter.

Just like the Nobel peace prize or literature prize.

Another tool to push leftist agenda.

In doing so they’ve devalued themselves to irrelevancy.

This became obvious when the prize was awarded for reporting on the fake Russia collusion story.

Sick joke? That ain’t nothing. I remember when Mrs. Pulitzer had sex with a trumpet.

Homer Simpson was awarded a Pulitzer in the ‘Mr. X’ episode where he literally made up outrageous news stories to bring hits to his. website
