Too bad, Roger.
The New Criterion gang likewise screwed up, and Peter Collier, Roger Kimball, Cliff May, Ron Radosh, Glenn Reynolds and Claudia Rosett have joined Roger Simon in offering the phony “Duranty” award.
You folks should have done your due diligence.
How could one guy with no fancy pedigrees or organizational backing have so soundly whipped seven pedigreed, connected, “superior beings”? Hell, I’ve been doing that for over 20 years!
That’s the problem with establishment conservatism. Their lip-service to meritocracy notwithstanding, with these guys everything’s about pedigrees and connections, rather than talent and hard work.
Remember, folks: There’s only one journalism award with the name “Duranty” in it. Accept no imposters!
