Wonkette

Hooray, Washington’s newspaper beat New York’s newspaper in Pulitzers by four. The Washington Post won six Pulitzer Prizes today, tying one shy of the record set by the New York Times in 2002 (but they had 9/11 in their backyard, so they just had to show up). The dumb Times only won two this year, neither of which went to “lightning rod conservative” columnist Bill Kristol. The Post scored the Public Service prize for its Walter Reed investigative series, which was pretty good. Congratulations, Washington Post newspaper! [Editor & Publisher]
