The very best

The Guardian reports:

Guardian Sport won two top prizes at the prestigious Sports Journalists’ Association’s awards evening on Monday.

The Guardian won sports publisher of the year at the SJA British Sports Journalism Awards night while Jonathan Liew was named columnist of the year for the fifth time in eight years, as well as winning bronze in the football journalist of the year category. Suzanne Wrack won bronze in the women’s football journalist of the year and Andy Bull won bronze in the sports feature writer of the year (long form) category.

Erm. Excuse me. Are we to understand that there is a prize for football journalist of the year and a prize for women’s football journalist of the year? As in, a prize for normal people and a prize for those pathetic feeble nitwits who can’t possibly ever win a prize unless the prize is restricted to pathetic feeble nitwits only?

Meanwhile, Jonathan Liew is…not a big promoter of women’s sports.

There are a great many objections of that kind…which the Guardian will continue to ignore. Women just don’t matter.
