Who will win RedStateVT’s annual Cheney Award? It is a
question that conservatives ask every year around this time. The Cheney Award
is given annually to the individual who in our view has done the most to preserve and promote the
values of American liberty, strength and exceptionalism. The award honors Vice-President Dick Cheney
for his service to and defense of this great country. Previous winners include
Glen Beck (2009), Dick Morris (2010) and Michelle Malkin (2011).
One of the most important developments in the modern
conservative movement is the rigorous ‘calling out’ of bias in the mainstream
media. (RedStateVT is just one offspring of this effort, albeit a highly
effective one!) It is safe to say that almost no act of Liberal bias in the
media today is not exposed, documented and dissected. The big ones – Candy
Crowley’s tossing of a presidential debate to her favored candidate - obviously
receive much attention. However, even the subtler acts of bias are now
regularly exposed.
Sample:
Question to Mitt Romney – Why does your party’s platform disparage
the poor in America?
Question to President Obama – How do you explain the
personal attacks on you by Republicans to your daughters?
Brent Bozell, founder and President of the Media Research
Center deserves enormous credit for his relentless efforts in this regard.
Through his television appearances, his columns and his Newsbusters website
Bozell lets no act of journalistic dishonesty go unanswered and serves as one
of the most effective watchdogs on Liberal media bias. For his heroic efforts
Bozell is the winner of RedStateVT’s 2012 Cheney Award.
