The Committee Of Walter Duranty's Ghost

"When Walter Duranty won a Pulitzer Prize for the Times in connection with his mendacious coverage of Stalin's Soviet Union, he performed valuable public relations work for a mass murderer. He nevertheless did no direct harm to the United States. Today's Pulitzer Prize award to the Times brings a new shame to the Pulitzer Prize committee that builds on its disgrace last year via the award to the AP."

I would disagree that Duranty did no direct harm to the United States. But clearly his ghost and various flavors of current earthly minions have the ghosts of Goebbels, Gramsci and Munzenberg all beaming with pride.
