And the same Newsweek magazine that smeared the reputation of our military and our nation by falsely claiming that we killed 650,000 civilians in Iraq. The same Newsweek magazine that is about to go out of business because of the tens of thousands of Americans who have cancelled their subscriptions to a publication that long-ago turned it’s back on objective and honest reporting as it sought to serve a liberal agenda.

While it’s interesting to note the purposeless of the Pulitzer Prize, it should not be forgotten that this is still a committee that awards and encourages prizes for “reporting” that many in our military and intelligence services consider borderline treasonous.

As when The Washington Post was awarded a Pulitzer for revealing that the CIA was using facilities in Eastern Europe to interrogate known terrorists. Or, when The New York Times won a Pulitzer for compromising the top secret domestic eavesdropping program aimed at terrorists trying to communicate with sleeper cells in our nation.

With this ill-advised reporting, the far-left will tell you the rights of the terrorists were protected. Because The Washington Post and The New York Times knowingly and eagerly revealed information that undermined our national security, our intelligence operatives will tell you that an unknown number of terrorists escaped capture and justice.

As this yearly farce plays out, the Columbia Journalism School needs to either stop awarding the biased prizes altogether, or just honestly call them what they’ve become: The Pulitzer Prizes for Liberal Journalism and Writing.
