Two Bloggers Receive Investigative Journalism Award

(via Right Truth) Those familiar with the intricacies of Rathergate know that Buckhead saw the original 60 Minutes II episode and raised a flag on FreeRepublic.com about the authenticity of Dan Rather's evidence. TankerKC followed with a web posting that prompted additional scrutiny. Ultimately, Dan Rather resigned and Rathergate will forever live in the annals of journalism.

Recognizing Buckhead and TankerKC (Harry MacDougald and Paul Boley, respectively) for their efforts, Accuracy in Media (AIM) has honored them with the first annual Reed Irvine Investigative Journalism Award.

Congratulations! I raise my coffee cup in tribute to Harry MacDougald and Paul Boley.
