An Amusing Diversion

 
 
Not that I really care one way or the other. The Onion serves a purpose well-established in American culture of lampoon (much like Jon Stewart, only The Onion is answerable to itself and no one else.) Pulitzers are routinely handed out for literature and writing that is far removed from journalism like song-writing. I just note that it's an unusual request and one that challenges the boundaries of what has been considered in the past.
 
By the way, if any of you is considering submitting my blog for consideration, a Pulitzer in Explanatory Reporting would suffice. I don't need one them fancy pants ones. :-)
