LOL, the Enquirer is up for a Pulitzer! :mrgreen: I guess, if Obama can get a Nobel Prize then they are certainly entitled to a Pulitzer! It actually sounds as if they are a viable nominee.

BBC News - Controversy over National Enquirer Pulitzer nomination
The most famous US tabloid is up for the country's top journalism award, for its coverage of a presidential candidate's extra-marital affair. But would it be a worthy winner?
It is now more than two and a half years since that September afternoon when Rick Egusquiza picked up the phone.
John Edwards
The journalist and former bartender at Venice Beach listened as the voice on the other end gave him information that would eventually lead to the downfall of a popular, charismatic former US senator who was running for President.
Now, Mr Egusquiza and the publication he works for, the National Enquirer, is waiting for another phone call.
One which will tell them whether they've won the most prestigious award in US journalism, the Pulitzer prize.
Just the thought of it has left much of the media establishment here gasping for breath.
