The Dullest Moaning Snooze&#160 is giving itself a pat on the back for winning a Pulitzer.

The Dallas Morning News today won the 2010 Pulitzer Prize for editorial writing for its “relentless editorials deploring the stark social and economic disparity between the city’s better-off northern half and distressed southern half.”

Robert W. Mong Jr., editor of The News, hailed the project, now in its third year, as a towering example of sustained reporting on a subject.

“Very few newspaper projects go beyond one year,” Mong said. “This one will continue. It has been an extremely ambitious, substantive project that’s beginning to get a lot of results.”

Translation:&#160 they’re trying to shame North Dallas into redistributing some of its money down south.

Given that:&#160 1) that whole series was nothing more than a “waaaaaaaah!” piece about North Dallas was just a bunch of racist good ol’ boys, and how po’ ol’ Sout’ Dalla’ couldn’t buy a break (never mind that former-mayor-now-turned-convict Don Hill bought fuckin’ plenty&#160 of breaks for himself South Dallas) and 2) the excuse-for-a-paper keeps hemorrhaging readership at a substantial rate, this just goes to show that Pulitzers are about as valuable nowadays as Nobel peace prizes.

Except they don’t pay as much.
