NEW YORK — Former Washington Post journalist Karen Attiah made history Wednesday as the first ever recipient of the Pulitzer Prize for "Best Fabricated Quote."
"My daddy always told me I wouldn't get anywhere with my lies but look at me now!" Attiah said, in a small ceremony held at Columbia University.
Attiah was fired from her position at The Washington Post after fabricating a quote from Charlie Kirk to cast him in a negative light following his assassination. This reportedly impressed the Pulitzer Prize board so much that they created the Best Fabricated Quote category just for her.
"She literally took a comment made about four specific women and turned it into a race issue by specifically bringing their skin color into it," said Pulitzer board member Sharon Chimney. "Right after the man was assassinated and everything! Just incredible stuff."
According to sources, Best Fabricated Quote was a highly competitive category this year, as Attiah narrowly beat out Brian Stelter and Don Lemon. She was awarded a $15,000 cash prize for her efforts.
At publishing time, The Washington Post hired Attiah back so they could take credit for her Pulitzer Prize.
