As previously detailed, Mapes was guilty of no less than three major journalistic offenses.

I'm tired of hearing about journalistic offenses. Weren't crimes committed? Wasn't the memo in question a government document? You can't forge government documents can you?

As bad as Blair and Mapes were they don't hold a candle to Duranty. It's outrageous that the New York Times still hangs on to his Pulitzer.

Shouldn't Herbert Matthews get an Dishonorable Mention?

Congrats to Mapes for this first award, or should we call it the "Bullitzer Prize"?

"CBS whitewashed CBS News President Andrew Heyward and CBS Evening News anchor Dan Rather’s involvement in Rathergate."

Perhaps the whitewashing of Rather's involvement was not aimed at protecting his involvement but to save him from embarassment that he wasn't. That is: Rather claimed to have personally checked this and that but what if he realy was an empty suit and did much of nothing but read the teleprompter? You can see why that wouldn't be discussed in the report.

"‘Mary Mapes earned my trust and the trust of her colleagues with years of excellent, fearless reporting,’ Rather said in a statement provided to The Post. ‘She is tireless in pursuit of a story and she has proven herself many times.’"

...ain't that the truth...

And Mr judge of unimpeachableness needs to be impeached...book him Dan'O! The big rat is walking away, he needs to be held accountable to the public trust since SeeBS does not have the balls or will.
