"The Best Journalists Are Subversives": The Martha Gellhorn Prize for Journalism
Submitted on June 4, 2011
By John Pilger - June 04, 2011
“This prize is in honour of one of the 20th century’s greatest reporters. It’s awarded to a journalist whose work has penetrated the established version of events and told an unpalatable truth. It’s validated by powerful facts that expose establishment propaganda, or ‘official drivel’, as Martha Gellhorn called it.”
