>>> “who has won a Pulitzer Prize for criticism”. He won because the awards committee loved Ebert’s support for Michael Moore and his fictional “documentary” on Bush and Afghanistan
Ebert won his Pulitzer Prize in 1975, the first critic to win the award. The birthers would say that just proves how well planned the conspiracy is.
I’m sure the Pulitzer prize awards committee still loved Ebert in 2003-4 for his praise of Michael Moore. A leopard does not change it’s spots.
