Nominations are now open for the Breitbart Awards, a joint effort by the Heritage Foundation and the Franklin Center to recognize individuals who “advance the spirit of Andrew Breitbart’s work.”
Breitbart Awards Honor Andrew's Legacy In Journalism, Blogging & Citizen Activism http://t.co/sKXHkqMf

Naturally, so-called journalists like Joan Walsh tried ever so pathetically to ridicule Breitbart and the awards honoring his legacy. We’d expect nothing else. Walsh is clearly still smarting from having to admit—with certitude—that Breitbart made her “look kind of stupid” for defending Anthony Weiner.
Actually, Walsh is probably still licking her Rathergate wounds along with the other media lapdogs in the kennel. When Dan Rather was forced into early retirement by bloggers doing the mainstream media’s job, she wrote:
[B]loggers today only play journalists on the web, without the commitment to fairness and accuracy that still distinguishes the best of the MSM.
Guess you can’t teach an old lapdog new tricks.
Other liberal water carriers also tried to ridicule the Breitbart Awards.
and then they lie about it? RT @joanwalsh No, winners receive awards wearing a pimp costume! @EricBoehlert @BigJournalism

Aw man, wish we had the time to catalog every lie told by Soros monkey Eric Boehlert. But why bother? Just check his Twitter feed on any day ending in a “y.”
@EricBoehlert @joanwalsh @BigJournalism And then claim there were no awards, it was invented by the evil liberal media

@EricBoehlert @joanwalsh And then write about how Obama said he was born at the @BigJournalism awards in '91. But it's NOT birtherism

Well if that isn’t the crackpot calling the kettle black. Clearly the kettle is so squeaky clean the crackpot can see its own reflection.
These tweets read like an index of people who will never have journalism awards named after them—well, unless someone launches a journalism Razzies.
@BigJournalism Is there an @ericboehlert award for partisan hackery? @NolteNC @danaloesch

On Saturday, Breitbart News editor John Nolte vented on Twitter about the glaring differences between “real journalist” Andrew Breitbart and the hacks and shills that populate the lapdog media:
