Greetings! Watch yer’ back Pulitzer Prizes. You’ve got competitor on the right. On Tuesday — the day after the Pulitzers were announced – the conservative Media Research Council (MRC) unveiled the winners of its third annual Bulldog Awards, “honoring conservatives in the media who truly deserve accolades yet will never receive them from the news media establishment.” Among the winners: Best Podcast, Ben Shapiro (good choice but Steve Bannon and Megyn Kelly might be fuming), Outstanding Columnist (Selena Zito, solid pick but Townhall’s wicked and wickedly funny Kurt Schlichter would have received my vote), and Best Social Media Personality (The Babylon Bee’s Seth Dillon nabbed the crown leaving Donald “Truth Social” out in the cold). Here’s why the MRC created the awards, according to its president Brent Bozell III: “Like everything else the left controls, major journalism awards are rigged to reward people who advance their most radical agenda priorities. If you want to win a Pulitzer, write about ‘climate change’ or ‘systemic racism’ or ‘reproductive health’ or promote ‘Russian collusion.’ If you want to win a Bulldog Award, tell the truth”… The conservative Free Press has an exclusive interview with the Columbia University custodian trapped by an angry mob who fought back against one protestor…I’m guessing Kristi Noem hasn’t had any trouble this week getting her kids to do their chores or eat their vegetables…If you keep reading, I’ll keep Righting.
