Columns on the Quotes by Three Judges
To determine this year's winners of the MRC's "Best Notable Quotables of 2002, the 15th Annual Awards for the Year's Worst Reporting," a panel of 52 radio talk show hosts, magazine editors, columnists, editorial writers and media observers each selected their choices for the first, second and third best quote from a slate of six to nine quotes in each category as listed on a ballot sent to them just before Thanksgiving. First place selections were awarded three points, second place choices two points, with one point for the third place selections. To see the results, go to: http://www.mediaresearch.org/notablequotables/bestof/2002/welcome.asp For an Adobe Acrobat PDF that matches the eight-page hard copy version: http://www.mediaresearch.org/notablequotables/bestof/2002/pdf/BestofNQ2002.pdf Since they are the key to giving the issue credibility and prominence, on this day before a holiday week I thought I'd give them the well-earned recognition they deserve by highlighting their names and affiliations.
