"His first television show has only been on the air for three days, but Ronan Farrow is already winning awards for his journalistic work. Reach the World, a global education group, will honor the 26-year-old Farrow with its annual Cronkite Award for Excellence in Exploration and Journalism."

"Walter Leland Cronkite, Jr. (November 4, 1916 – July 17, 2009) was an American broadcast journalist, best known as anchorman for the CBS Evening News for 19 years (1962–81). During the heyday of CBS News in the 1960s and 1970s, he was often cited as "the most trusted man in America" after being so named in an opinion poll."

He's a regular Edward R. Furrow.
Frank would be so proud.
The smart play, in my opinion, would have been to turn it down.
Do you ever wonder, like, really wonder, if our betters are simply all stark raving, flat out, fucking bonkers insane?
How, short of walking on water, can a 26 year old be worthy of a prize in journalism?
He just got that because he let Bob Schieffer touch him in his special place.
@TY,
He just got that because he let Bob Schieffer touch him in his special place.
You say that as a joke, but I'm guessing there's no shortage of folks, male & female, who'd like to get at his junk.
That makes as much sense as anything else.
The sexism at MSNBC is remarkable. What did Rachel Maddow get as her three day anniversary present, I ask you?
Nada. She ought to sue.
His blue eyes made them swoon.
Is that Farrow kid the female version of Rachel Maddog, er, Maddow?

It's Obamamerica.
Everybody gets an award when they start a new job.
Or get one.
Why not the Purple Heart?
Why not the Purple Heart?
Are you threatening him? He'd have to get hurt to get a Purple Heart. Perhaps you meant the Medal, as in the Congressional Medal of Honor. But see, that requires Congressional approval and military service. Then again, this is the Obama Administration, so he'll just rewrite the UCMJ and call young Ronan over to accept his award.
