A sad day in the annals of "journalism"

It's a very sad day in the annals of journalism, and another reminder of just why the newspaper business is dying. Katie Couric's interviews with Sarah Palin have just received the Alfred I. duPont-Columbia University Award from the Columbia University Graduate School of Journalism.

It is stunning when ambush journalism is awarded one of the formerly well-regarded Pulitzer honors, when in fact, the Pulitzer board should have sanctioned Katie Couric along with her rapidly shrinking network.
