Frequently Asked Questions Regarding the Media Research Center
Annual Gala featuring the DisHonors and Conservative of the Year
Award.
Q. What is the Media Research Center's Annual Gala featuring the
DisHonors Awards?
A. For the past 6 years the Media Research Center has roasted
liberal and inaccurate reporting by the news media and Hollywood
celebrities at a dinner held in Washington, DC.
Joe Scarborough called
the MRC's Annual Gala "the must attend event in Washington."
It is the liveliest and most enjoyable conservative event around.
A who's who of conservative luminaries can be seen on stage and in
the audience.
Like other awards
shows, categories are presented with several nominees, but the
difference is conservative personalities present the awards and
accept the awards for the liberal winners. Past presenters
include: Sean Hannity, Ann Coulter, Laura Ingraham, Michelle Malkin,
Jonah Goldberg, and Neil Boortz, to name a few. A short list
of past accepters includes: US Supreme Court Justice Clarence
Thomas, Ambassador Jeanne Kirkpatrick, Sen. Zell Miller, Judge
Robert Bork, Rich Lowery, Lucianne Goldberg, and William F. Buckley.
