Cheney's Presenting a Press Award (to someone who doesn't work at Fox)
Froomkin writes

"This Should Be Fun"

The New York Daily News reports that it's Washington bureau chief, Thomas M. DeFrank, has won the Gerald R. Ford Prize for Distinguished Reporting on the Presidency .

"Vice President Cheney, once President Ford's chief of staff, will present the award at a National Press Club luncheon June 19."

The ex-president's nonprofit foundation "singled out three articles from last fall: a story reporting that Bush had rebuked senior adviser Karl Rove in 2003 for his role in the Valerie Plame case ( Bush whacked Rove on CIA leak ); a story describing the erosion of the Bush-Cheney relationship ( Dubya-Cheney ties frayed by scandal ), and a story describing Bush as 'frustrated, sometimes angry and even bitter,' and recounting how he was lashing out at junior aides ( Bushies feeling the boss' wrath )."


Awkward!

3. Too late. Leni Riefenstahl finally died a few years ago.
