I looked. It’s not Babylon Bee.
Failures patting each other on their backs.
Fitting. Modern “journalism” equals fraud.
Yep.
Well, they worship that fraud, Cronkite, too.

The Moody College of Communications at the University of Texas deserves an award for truth in advertising. They’re giving awards to future liars in the name of an exposed liar.
But you can’t receive the award unless you share an original “Ratherism” that is related in some way to Texas.
“This award is bigger than than a Dallas hairstylist’s ‘do!”
“I’d like to thank the committee for making me happier than bumblebee in a bluebonnet field!”
“And my sources are more wide-rangng than a West Texas wind farm!”
Howlin, every single one of these memos to file is in a proportionally spaced font, probably Palatino or Times New Roman.
In 1972 people used typewriters for this sort of thing, and typewriters used monospaced fonts.
The use of proportionally spaced fonts did not come into common use for office memos until the introduction of laser printers, word processing software, and personal computers. They were not widespread until the mid to late 90's. Before then, you needed typesetting equipment, and that wasn't used for personal memos to file. Even the Wang systems that were dominant in the mid 80's used monospaced fonts.
I am saying these documents are forgeries, run through a copier for 15 generations to make them look old.
This should be pursued aggressively.

The Dan Rather Medals for News and Guts

Sounds like something straight out of the Babylon Bee.
Liberals make up fairy-tales and spread bull sh** like it grows on their money trees in the back yard....
The “I’d Rather not receive this Award” award....
Is this a “gag” award?
What’s the frequency, Kenneth!!!!
Winning the Dan Rather award will be like winning THE FICKLED FINGER OF FATE award.
How about we name a group of Battered Women’s Shelters after O J Simpson ????
