Blogger Joshua Micah Marshall wins Polk Award for Legal Reporting
Gawker: Blogger Wins Journalism Award



The George Polk awards — described by blogger Will Bunch as the "Golden Globes of American journalism" — were announced early this morning. One of them went to a blogger who blogs! Far out! An army of Davids has stormed the gates! Joshua Micah Marshall of Talking Points Memo (a blog!!) won the Polk Award for Legal Reporting, for his role in exposing the US Attorneys scandal that eventually brought down Attorney General Alberto Gonzales. On a blog! A blog that follows the rather traditional journalistic model of "hiring" and "paying" "reporters." Brave new world!
