Seems highly suspicious. And we all know these awards the power elite pass among themselves are complete bullshit.
On edit, I changed "nomination" to "confirmation".

They're fumbling along, trying one little adjustment, then another, while the people wait for them to stumble onto something that works completely by accident.
But I read the banks and insurance companies are doing very well.
