Pulitzer continues its misguided prizes

Powerline:

Last year we noted that the AP had won "The Pulizer Prize for felony murder" for its spot photographic coverage in Iraq. We followed up in a series of posts featuring the analysis of former New York Times photographer D. Gorton (here and here). Mr. Gorton recapitulated his analysis in a devastating column for the Standard....

Following in the footsteps of the AP last year, New York Times reporters James Risen and Eric Lichtblau won the Pulitzer Prize today for their treasonous contribution to the undermining of the highly classified National Security Agency surveillance program of al Qaeda-related terrorists. As I wrote in a column for the Standard, the Risen/Lichtblau reportage clearly violated relevant provisions of the Espionage Act -- a particularly serious crime insofar as it lends assistance to the enemy in a time of war.

The WaPo also got a prize for "declassifying" the prison system for al Qaeda ops. It is ironic that the NY Times would get a prize for revealing classified information with out authorization a day after its editorial board complained about the President's authoriztion of a declassification to correct the public record from the lies and distortions of Joe Wilson.
