The Duffel Blog nominated for Pulitzer prize

Filed · 1547

Tampa, FL - Duffel Blog was recently nominated for the highly prestigious Pulitzer Prize. The award, out of the memory of renowned journalist Joseph Pulitzer, is set to be announced sometime later this year to multiple news outlets. Duffel Blog is proud to be in the running as one of them.

The nomination comes despite the best efforts of many notable detractors -- including Stars & Stripes, Military Times, and every military public affairs officer on the planet.

"This is bullshit, pure and simple," said Army PAO Capt. Jeffrey Stamp, "to even nominate this hunk of crap known as Duffel Blog is a real travesty."
