Why "specifically" did Judith Miller win the Pulitzer...?
Can it be taken back now that we know she helped Bush scam America with LIES to justify the Iraq war.......?

Surely it's a disgrace to the Pulitzer and future winners ........

1. Pulitzer awarded to Times for reporting after 9-11. Ironically, Judy,
not a team player, got a Pulitzer awarded to a team of reporters for their work. Not a standalone award just for little Judy. http://www.pulitzer.org/year/2002/explanatory-reporting/

4. All that great reporting on 9/11...
Here's what it says:

"Awarded to The New York Times Staff for its informed and detailed reporting, before and after the September 11th attacks on America, that profiled the global terrorism network and the threats it posed."

And here's the list of topics of the articles that received the award:

http://www.pulitzer.org/year/2002/explanatory-reporting/works/

January 14, 2001:
One Man and a Global Web of Violence
January 15, 2001:
Dissecting a Terror Plot From Boston to Amman
January 16, 2001:
Killing for the Glory of God, in a Land Far From Home
September 30, 2001:
U.S. Pursued Secret Efforts to Catch or Kill bin Laden
October 14, 2001:
Failure to Heed Signs of Change in Terror Goals
October 29, 2001:
Pakistani Intelligence Had Links to Al Qaeda, U.S. Officials Say
November 4, 2001:
Hijackers' Meticulous Strategy of Brains, Muscle and Practice
December 27, 2001:
Holy War Lured Saudis as Rulers Looked Away
December 28, 2001:
Terror Cells Slip Through Europe's Grasp
December 30, 2001:
Many Say U.S. Planned for Terror but Failed to Take Action

-------

The award was to Miller and Jim Risen.

I wonder now how much of these 9/11 stories was made up out of whole cloth.

6. Shouldn't the bush administration be eligible for that one?
They provided most of the information, it just doesn't seem right that "W" isn't given credit. Oh.... they're saving him for the Nobel PEACE Prize, that must be it! :puke:

5. Did the Pulitzer involve a trumpet, a midget, a bottle
of Jack Daniels and two repugs?

Can't wait to see that little black dress.

7. Who was on the panel that awarded this Pulitzer...?
That would probably lead to further skunks.
