Some of the Most Outrageously Biased Conservative Propagandists Gather to Bestow “Dishonors” on Liberal Media Figures

I was channel surfing earlier today and just happened to land on C-Span which was airing video of the Media Research Center’s “2008 Gala” held on March 19.  During the “gala,” billed as “roasting the most outrageously biased liberal reporters,” the MRC bestowed its yearly “Dishonors Awards.”

The winners were selected by a distinguished panel of ten leading media observers, including Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity, Tony Blankley, Larry Kudlow, Cal Thomas, Walter E. Williams and Kate O’Beirne.

For example, Joe the Plumber accepted on behalf of Bill Maher (Bill Maher is a “reporter”?), who won for “Quote of the Year.”  (Geez.  What a Jack of all trades ol’ Joe is. Now he’s an expert on the media too?)  They also honored Brit Hume with the MRC’s third annual “William F. Buckley Award for Media Excellence.” Gag me.  See the 1,680 Brit Hume posts at my alma mater, News Hounds, for more on why that’s a laugh.

See more (including video clips) at the link above.

Surely they don’t take themselves or this “gala” seriously, huh?
