The MSM likes to play up this thug's Nobel Peace Prize nomination as though it were a hard-won honour and testament to his noble character. In reality, getting a Nobel Peace Prize nomination is ridiculously easy, as the Nobel Prize organization's criteria admit:

Right to submit proposals for the Nobel Peace Prize, based on the principle of competence and universality, shall by statute be enjoyed by:
1. Members of national assemblies and governments of states;
2. Members of international courts;
3. University rectors; professors of social sciences, history, philosophy, law and theology; directors of peace research institutes and foreign policy institutes;
4. Persons who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize; 5. Board members of organizations who have been awarded the Nobel Peace Prize;
6. Active and former members of the Norwegian Nobel Committee; (proposals by members of the Committee to be submitted no later than at the first meeting of the Committee after February 1) and
7. Former advisers appointed by the Norwegian Nobel Institute.

In other words, Professor Shabazz X. Moonbat of the Afro-American Studies program at Podunk State University could have submitted a valid nomination for Tookie Williams, although it would have gotten nothing more than a form letter rejection in return.
