I'm so confused about the adulation for the Goldfinch. Why does everybody love this book so?

Yeah, even as I'm not a real big fan of contemporary art, I almost always enjoy Jen's Slog posts. Fun times.

So, just to get this straight, the Guardian and the Post, whose primary sources were Edward Snowden's stolen/leaked documents are to be celebrated for revealing the information contained therein, but Mr. Snowden is a traitor and should be thrown in jail for life and/or executed? Just checking.

Please don't go to 6am daily posts like Eli did, Jen.

We need and want to hear from you more and often.

Congratulations!

Delighted to see you're getting such recognition, Jen. Your intelligence and sincerity are deserving of a Pulitzer every year.

@9: Snowden didn't steal anything. He copied information that was communicated to him by machines programmed to do so by U.S. government staff, then communicated it to reporters.

Congrats to Inga Saffron!!! for wiinning!

She is awesome.

Pulitzer awards 21 people per year (and approx 100 finalists). So being a finalist is not too shabby.
